As this is one of my largest PRs to date, any and all feedback is appreciated! I understand that this is a big change, and I can adjust anything as requested. |

So, here's the thing. We don't really use any of the silicon laws, nor really have an interest in dealing with them administratively. The repo config isn't up to date with server config, either, which is on us. The current law we use is: I don't really have any interest in changing this. A silicon here is considered part of the ship's crew, and isn't really bound to a strict set of laws in our setting. None of these law changes would be used if they were to be merged, and I'd like to keep it that way. Silicon stuff is a headache and generally designed to cause friction with a station's crew - this is not really applicable to us If you'd like to keep some cyborg changes that's fine, but the law stuff will not be getting merged. |

What if you just removed the law and have them start purged by default? I'm like 90% sure we're moving away from lawed silicons being a thing anyways, and functionally I don't think anything changes. |
@thgvr Would this be a better solution, do you think? If not, I'll scrap all the law stuff. |

Just making no laws would be fine |
About The Pull Request
Changes cyborgs and AIs to start with a new, fully-implemented law set: Crewsimov.
Security cyborgs have also seen their hailers removed, and peacekeepers have had their disappearing shield generators fixed. Both of their module select messages have been changed to reflect the Crewsimov default.
Why It's Good For The Game
For the fixes, the cyborg hailer was only used for playing sounds that were removed as cruft in a previous pr, and the shield icon state was made invisible by a single misplaced character. Crewsimov, otherwise, is a huge improvement on the default Asimov to protect all manner of the humanoid crew that constructs an AI or cyborg on their ship instead of any random human.
