AI/Cyborgs have no need to bolt down any secure areas.
Security must respect the privacy of crew members and no unauthorized searches are allowed.

Code Blue - Confirmed Threat

Suit sensors are mandatory, but coordinate positions are not required.
Security may have weapons visible.
Crew members may be searched by security with probable cause.
AI/Cyborgs may bolt down high secure areas.
Energy guns, laser guns and riot gear are allowed to be given out to security personnel if the HoS or Warden agree.

Code Red - Immediate Threat

Maximum alert level. There is an immediate threat to the station or severe damage. Martial Law is in effect.

Suit sensors are to be turned fully on at all times.
Security can raid departments and arrest any crew member deemed a threat to the station.
All crew members must remain in their departments.
AI/Cyborgs may bolt down maintenance and airlocks leading to space.

Code Delta - Imminent Destruction

The station's self destruct mechanism has been engaged due to overwhelming threat to the station. Martial Law is in effect.

Suit sensors are to be turned fully on at all times.
All orders from Heads of Staff and Security must be followed, any disobedience is punishable.
All crew members are to evacuate immediately, if possible.

Different Situations

Evacuation

All personnel are to evacuate on the escape pods or the emergency shuttle, which Central Command sends.
All personnel are required to assist with evacuation. All crew must be evacuated, regardless of their consciousness.
Prisoners are to be brought to the secure area of the escape shuttle, except for prisoners who pose a severe threat.
Uncloned bodies are to be brought back to Central Command for processing.
AI units may be brought to Central Command on portable card devices (InteliCards) if structural failure is likely or AI units wish to leave.
Mechs and Cyborg units are to be hauled to the escape shuttle for Central Command to inspect.
Authorizing early shuttle launches is not allowed unless there is an immediate threat to shuttle integrity.

Fire and Other Environmental Hazards

Immediate evacuation of all untrained personnel.
