Guard INRs.

Written by: Ilyos, the Arbiter
Date: Sunday, December 29th, 2019
Addressed to:

Based on forum feedback, we now have a first iteration of guard INRs:
- Faction guards may now be fitted with an INR, allowing them to respawn every 2 hours
- This new upgrade is purchased just like any other upgrade via FACTION GUARD UPGRADE and costs the same
- The INR upgrade has its own slot and will not lock you out from purchasing one of the other regular upgrades
- The INR does not add to the guard's upkeep like other upgrades, but instead costs the faction 5,000 marks per death. Failure to pay for this on death will result in the guard's permadeath as usual
- FACTION GUARD INFO will display if a guard has an INR or not.
- Once bought, this upgrade is permanent.
- The guard will respawn in the room it is HIREd in or, in the room it is STATIONed via the relevant commands.
- Guards respawn with their upgrades intact
- Don't be alarmed if their maintenance status shows up as 'bad' in FACTION GUARD LIST while they're recloning.

We will monitor the costs, respawn times and other related mechanics based on your feedback.
