Minor ERT change for the better.

Post by Lacran » #734343

ERT generally are a bit lack luster in competence, making Nanotrasens elite seem pretty comical.

A small but potentially substantial change I'd recommend:

Add an ERT role preference in character preferences below the sec department option.

Virtually identical to sec department preference, you select engineer, medic, security or commander, which when you successfully roll ERT, places you into that position or at least attempts to over other options.

This helps ensure ERT members are being placed in the specialisation they feel most comfortable in. Instead of an engineering main being an ERT medic expected to know surgery, or a sec main who's never built anything bigger than a table to smash an assistant into being an engineer or worst of all, a brand new player becoming the ert commander.

That'll still occur, just less frequently. This doesn't prevent new players getting ert.
