Lifesaver necklace

[TsunamiAnt]

About The Pull Request

Adds the lifesaver necklace to the mining voucher as well as the mining vendor.
It's a small matchbook sized plastitanium box on a string that screams and whines and calls over radio and makes boopy noises when it's user dies. It also shows up on GPS.

It only works on lavaland.

Why It's Good For The Game

Never complain to me about being forgotten again.

still some bugs to iron out related to the equip and signal code, also the vendor is complaining a bad index, but I figure I'll at least get the PR up for now.

[DarnTheMarn]

anyone want to make some bets?

1 week after this gets merged someone makes a PR that gives it to security.

IIRC Bacon pretty much had an idea for this exact thing to give to security a long ass time ago.

You're having a stroke and mixing the Dispatch with some PR-discussion comments

Anyways, yipeee good addition for those poor souls!

Explorers could definetly use something similar( Most of the time if no one paid attention to the broadcast signal they're forgotten since it's only sent once)

Please add 10 seconds timer before wallmart deathrattle alert, so i could kill miner in maints.

I feel like miners have already more then enough survival tools as it is. Fulton packs, tracking implants (which you can use at tracking beacon for teleporter if i'm not mistaken) mandatory gps, ets. Adding something that announces that "yo theres a dead crewmember" is too much. How about instead of deathrattle, necklace would link miner to suit sensors network on station, so medical could always track their vitals. This will devalue valudhunting aspect of necklace for sure.
Also heres where i stole the idea from. tgstation/tgstation#65253

you get 15 seconds, and it'll make it obvious.

[TsunamiAnt]

wowee guys we are clearing linters

Code is fine now. Me or someone else needs to come along and review the gameplay changes

[Liver-1]

If it only works on lavaland it should have a line in the item description that says something like:
"Due to the unique commlink this device has to the lavaland base comms array, it will only work on lavaland."

I also think this is a better less powegameable solution
