A game mode with a rather checkered past. Removed due to being worse balanced than the station budget. Revolution was in theory a really great gamemode that everyone on the station would get to enjoy, but it never quite would turn out as well as you would hope: the rounds would always turn out to be super chaotic, and more often than not, end up with a battlefield, with dead assistants and security officers everywhere. Since at the time 60+ player rounds were not uncommon, the revs would usually convert most of the crew and quickly kill all of the heads by swarming them. The only real defense would be to hide, which made the round drag on forever. As years passed, and server populations shrunk, and the rev nostalgia grew and grew, revolution was added back in rotation by popular demand in 2017.

All the manner of especially illegal and/or restricted things--how to find/discover them!
Contraband Levels
The following is a mostly-comprehensive list of things the security scanners, SecHUDs, the Guardbuddies, and Beepsky and his securitron brothers all consider illegal. By no means should you use contraband rating as the sole factor in deciding to confiscate an item/arrest a person. Contraband is strictly a legal term; all contraband is dangerous, but not everything that's dangerous is contraband. Use your common sense! Sure, a man carrying a butcher's knife isn't technically carrying contraband, but that doesn't mean he hasn't done anything illegal.

The Security Scanners
it checks your hands, pockets, and all your belt + backpack contents
if it finds any item with a contraband rating, that rating gets added to a total
if the item was in a pocket or container, only 1/2 of its actual contraband rating is added to the total
if the overall rating at the end is over 4, the scanner goes off and PDA messages security your name and threat level (ranging from 4 to 10)
so like you may get by a scanner with a baton in your backpack. but carrying it in hand as you pass through would set off the scanner or if you had two batons in your backpack that would set it off
