About The Pull Request
Nanotrasen Consultant and Blueshield's ID trims have been changed to be limited, meaning that the amount of access that can be given are as limited as a head's.
I've also removed the ID change access from the NTC since, well, that's HoP's job rather than an advisor's.
Additionally prevents those with captain access only (NTCs and Blueshields) from doing self-service AA by giving themselves HoP and then doing whatever they want with it.
Code mostly borrowed from Bubber
How This Contributes To The Nova Sector Roleplay Experience
Makes the game respect the game design behind the ID card trims where only captain's spare and captain's ID have the ability to be given all access as well as the following;
Command policy already states that blueshields already aren't meant to give themselves access, but that does not necessarily stop them if they know how to be sneaky enough and don't get ahelped. It's also hard to tell on whenever they have AA or not until an admin varedits their ID closely which is kind of annoying to do so. There are already many, many ways for them to break into places during emergencies and even then, they are still better off following the heads on emergencies like a bodyguard is meant to do.
NTCs in the other hand essentially have semi-AA already, which is enough to inspect every department well while doing their job on advising command. If they have a reason to require more access (eg. Departments breaking SoP) they should consult the HoP or Captain for it.
Additionally, the block encourages both roles to interact with the HoP or Captain in case they need access change rather than self-servicing AA for themselves, we're a roleplay server after all and veterans are meant to be a good representative of that, rather than bypassing the HoP entirely by just opening Plexagon Access Management on their PDA and ticking every single box just because the game allows that.

Tested, NTCs only really get access to modify service while Blueshields are locked out of it

Changelog
🆑 Hardly
balance: Nanotrasen Consultants and Blueshields now use limited ID trims
balance: Blueshields and Nanotrasen Consultants can no longer change their own access
