Captain's Spare ID Safe Can Only Hold ID Cards (tgstation#72584)
## About The Pull Request I've personally seen this strategy play out the exact same way on more than one occasion in an higher frequency lately (I've never played as either side, just witnessed it)- and it always just seems to be an abuse of a skewed in-game mechanic. So, this PR makes it so that you can only put IDs into the spare ID safe. Nothing else. ## Why It's Good For The Game I think this balance change is needed because it really sort of ruins what I like about nuclear operatives, having to run around and stay fluid for whatever the nuclear operatives could have, not "HAHA WE WILL PUT IT IN OUR (NEARLY) IMPENETRABLE SAFE THAT THEY WILL NEED TO USE A C4 DIRECTLY ON AND JUST END UP PLAYING BLOONS TOWER DEFENSE SIX AS WE AWAIT THOSE RED FUCKS TO ARRIVE". I miss when it would be fun to inject it into a monkey who could crawl around vents, put it in a disposals loop around the station to keep the nukies on a wild goose chase, or just holding your ground in the brig and retreating if they batter you down. It's just a very OP location in a very OP place with lots of warranted OP armor for it's intended use case, which is not really being followed by putting the all-important disk in the safe. It's just very strong overall due to how protected-from-damage the spare ID safe is, and I don't really like the fact that this is emerging as a new "meta gameplay" (even used when there aren't any nuclear operatives), it just sullies the different variety of ways you can defend yourself against nuclear operatives when there appears to be **the clear choice**. I don't like that concept where you can have a strategy so good that you _shouldn't_ do it. Also, it's an _ID Safe_. Not a disk safe. ## Changelog :cl: balance: Due to materials costing a lot more than ever, Nanotrasen's Spare ID Safe Supplier have cut down on the space inside of the ID Safe, meaning you can only cram in things as thin as an ID Card. /:cl:
