Make threat levels + Lockdown useful

None of threat levels including lockdown (critical) actually do anything of use. All they do is turn on 2 blinking lights and send out a radio message.

Would be nice if they actually did things like lockdown the palace.

What lockdown should do is close all doors, put shutters over certain windows like within the TR, lock doors and sound an alarm.

They do. If you place the palace on “lockdown”, all main windows and doors shut.

And you find that useful? As civilians we can just lock pick our way in and go on the roof or kill the king. What could really make it useful is if it didn’t even exist. The whole system is so unrealistic and the little alarms on the doors look stupid so I think they should just take it alway.

Well then king could abuse it and lock down the place so civs can never possibly get inside.

Once it goes in lockdown, the doors and windows shut. These doors and windows can be re opened by anyone and won’t automatically shut. The only time it all shuts is the second the lockdown is activated. Not to mention that there is a cooldown as well for switching the status’s.

Yeah if they can’t get opened how are MPS supposed to get in

They could be overridden temporarily but would then shut after a couple seconds to allow MPS / RG in.

Common sense please

Then it would only last a couple minutes before a cooldown

Only applies to doors that require perms and they can just be re opened or lock picked

I know. That’s what I was trying to say.

Still there could be an armed civ on the roof and the king decides to abuse the lockdown thing so it takes longer for GG or MO19 to get up there and stop them. Many kings helps armed civilians.
