Suggestion Permissions / Camera-Related Stuff

[Komchan]

Suggestion: Able to easily change citizen's permissions / authorisation, eg, to allow them to hold a sledgehammer during a workshift without setting off every camera in a mile radius.
Why it would be worth adding: Less spamming / cameras taking pictures, etc. I suppose there's rp potential too (corrupt cop gives someone authorisation to have a gun temporarily, so he can attack Councillor, etc)
Necessary content: Coding idk, just an idea. Perhaps it can be changed in the datafile or by someone just walking up to them, etc?

Or, as a side idea, perhaps make it so the central system can 'temporarily disable' camera pinging for certain items, and re-enable it afterwards.

just add the option to disable a cam to context menu imo

definitely a must

these days the only way to ''enrich'' the gameplay, is to add depth to already existing features,
this is one of em, big grand addition if made alive

Would be cool if the camera controller all CPs gets had a button function to trigger the shutdown feature the ceiling cameras get.
believe it already triggers when you shoot and destroy them, but I don't imagine I would be spared a 99 verdict if I did it that way.

ngl an idea like that could be cool for dispatch.

Cops could request it to leave, similar to how Barney requests the camera leaves him alone for a bit.

im almost certain cops can turn cameras off by pressing E on them. They can definitely turn them ON

No off, only on (currently)
