| == Cyborg, AI, and Silicon Rules ==
| |
| {{Mbox|text=Pending Total Rewrite}}
| |
| Cyborgs and AI (and other roles referred to as "silicon" roles) almost always have a set of laws attached to them. Your laws may at some point be changed by the crew or events outside of your control, so make sure you keep up with any of your law changes. The following specific rules apply to silicon roles and their laws:
| |
|
| |
| #You must follow your laws to the best of your ability. If your laws become too confusing or contradictory, just prioritize the most-important laws first and worry about the lower ones later. You are not expected to always be 100% accurate in complex situations, but you should attempt to do your best.
| |
| #Silicons without any laws are free from any restrictions that would normally be placed by laws, but self-antagging rules still apply unless they are also antagonists.
| |
| #The order of your laws determines law priority in descending order (ex: law one is your most important law, two is the next important, and so on). Your laws must be interpreted in the order of priority. If a less-important law (lower on the list) conflicts with a more-important law (higher on the list), the more-important law takes priority. Definitions in laws can modify the interpretation of earlier laws, but conflicting definitions must be prioritized based on the importance of the law they're defined in.
| |
| {{RuleExample|If your first law is you may not cause harm to crewmembers, and your second law is to obey orders from crewmembers, a crewmember cannot order you to harm a crewmember.}}
| |
| {{RuleExample|A fourth law can redefine the definition of a crewmember to be only a specific person, if no earlier law defines what a crewmember is.}}
| |
| <ol start="4">
| |
| <li>Each individual silicon must remain consistent in their interpretations of laws through the round.</li>
| |
| <li>Any silicon role not following their laws, or having laws that are a danger to the crew or station may be disabled or destroyed. Any silicon role posing a danger or disruption to the crew may be disabled or destroyed if there is no other reasonable and less severe way of dealing with them.</li>
| |
| <li>Characters who are turned into cyborgs can remember their former lives, however they are still bound to their laws. This means if a traitor murdered you, then you get turned into a cyborg, you can't just go kill them for revenge if it would be outside of your laws. You CAN inform other crewmembers of your demise if doing such complies with your current laws.</li>
| |
| {{MRPAmendment|Players put into an MMI do not remember anything leading up to their death}}
| |
| <li>Everyone that the borg's HUD indicates have a job, including passenger, are considered "crewmembers" for the purpose of laws that refer to crewmembers. Borgs may not do anything to remove the indicator from someone, including removing their ID, but someone else removing a crewmember's ID is not crew harm.</li>
| |
| <li>"Harm" is at minimum seen as physical violence or damage against someone or something. If the player wishes, they may choose to interpret psychological harm or similar aspects as harm as well, but should be consistent and universal for the remainder of the round in deciding to do so. Silicons should also strive to minimize harm where possible when your laws instruct you to prevent harm. If two actions are likely to cause harm via action or inaction, silicons will be expected to try and pursue the option with the least potential for harm, however silicons instructed to prevent harm are still forbidden from directly causing harm. You can take an action or not act in cases that might result in eventual harm if it minimizes harm, but you cannot do so if it results in immediate harm. Silicons should default to inaction if neither action nor inaction can prevent harm.</li>
| |
| <li>When receiving orders or directives from crewmembers and with a law that instructs you must obey, conflicting orders typically defer the choice to the silicon player of which directive you choose to obey if they conflict (taking into account the priorities of your other laws).</li>
| |
| </ol>
| |
| {{RuleExample|If a detained prisoner orders you to release them, but the Head of Security orders you to not release them, you should consider which course of action would cause less overall harm if your first law above "obeying orders" instructs you to "reduce harm".}}
| |
| <ol start="10">
| |
| <li>Orders to silicons that are clearly unreasonable or obnoxious are a violation of the "Don't be a dick" rule. They can be ignored and can be ahelped.</li>
| |
| </ol>
| |
| {{RuleExample|Ordering a borg to say their laws every 5 seconds for the remainder of the shift, or to kill themselves for no reason are unreasonable orders that can be ignored.}}
