This adds colony blackboxes + CIR's to the two maps missing them.

There's already two on Hybrisa, and having that box in the middle of the offices looks weird, doesn't fit. Also I like the idea of them actually providing some intel perhaps, or some actual gameplay benefit, other then RP, so might be a good idea to actually make them do something, but yeah that would be another PR. |
You are right, I just searched for the big blackboxes and presumed those that miss that also miss the little ones. I'll ammend the PR in a couple of hours. As for the gameplay suggestion, I also had an idea for something like that, with them being able to be decoded in the ARES core directly for some intel and a lore-paper like the Liaison gets at roundstart depending on the map that would show some randomised logs of colony announcements/activity during the breach. However I'm just an ideasguy in that regard. |
The least that could be done is adding "desc_lore =" to them on each map, with an appropriate lore-thing written out perhaps? Other stuff would be cool too, but yeah I know this wasn't the original intent of the PR, but expanding it could be cool. Just a suggestion. |
This reverts commit 7d475ae.
Do you mean the CIR's? |
Yeah, you can basically add an extended description to them, which could be pretty long, if you wanted to write out some sort of colony lore thing. |
If you are intending to expand the PR by adding more descriptors you should draft the PR, if you are finished with this, I'll do a review soon. |
I'm not in the discord, so I'm not communicating to the loreheads or whoever they have in charge of that. Maybe I'll make a separate PR, but it won't happen in this one. |

About the pull request
This adds a colony blackbox + CIR to New Varadero.
Explain why it's good for the game
It's a neat thing to have that Liaisons, Command and the intelligence team can use as a roleplay object and side objective, they were more than likely simply forgotten to be added rather than purposefully left out.
