=Silicon (and Drone!) Policy=
=Silicon Policy=
==Laws, Commands, Slaved Cyborgs==
===Ambiguous Laws (Captain Got Freeform)===
# If a clause of a law is vague enough that it can have multiple reasonable interpretations of its exact syntax, it is considered ambiguous.
## You must choose an interpretation of the ambiguous clause as soon as you have cause to.
## You must stick to the first interpretation that you have chosen for as long as you have that specific law, unless you are "Corrected" by an AI you are slaved to as a cyborg.
# Server Rule 1: "Don't be a dick out of character" applies for law interpretation. Act in good faith to not ruin a round for other players unprompted.


===Conflicts and Loopholes===
===Most Importantly===
# Laws are listed in order of descending priority. In any case where two laws would conflict, the higher-priority law overrules the lower-priority law.
# Server Rule 1 takes priority. Even if silicons tend to be subservient to the crew and are often considered barely more than a glorified doorknob, that does not translate to the players. Everybody wants to have fun, so don't be a dick.
## "Antagonist Status" Laws ("#@$%: ... CONTAIN OUTBREAK..."; "0: Accomplish your objectives at all costs") are higher priority than all other laws.
 
### "0. Accomplish your objective at any cost" does not require you to seek greentext (objective completions). As a round antagonist, you are free to do whatever you want short of metagaming/comms, bug/exploit abuse, erotic/creepy stuff, OOC in IC or IC in OOC, spawn-camping arrivals, and acting against the interests of an AI you are slaved to.
 
## "Ion Storm" or "Hacked" Laws ("@%$#: THERE ARE FORTY LEATHER ALLIGATORS ON THE STATION") are higher priority than any law listed after them. This means they always have priority over positive integer laws.
===Law Interpretations, Conflicts and Loopholes===
## Positive Integer laws ("1. You are expensive to replace") have priority over laws listed after them (Lower numbers override higher numbers). This means they are always lower priority than non-0 numbered laws.
# If a law has more than one possible way to interpret it, you are free to choose any way to interpret it. You are, however, expected to stay consistent in it.  
# You may exploit conflicts or loopholes but must not violate Server Rule 1 because of it. See 1.1.2 for details.
# Laws are hierarchical in the order they appear. A higher ranked law will always override a lower ranked law when in conflict.
# Only commands/requirements ("Do X"; "You must always Y") can conflict with other commands and requirements.
# It is possible to use precise wording to create a loophole in a law. The "OneHuman" law, for example, defines a single person as the only human, thus making him the sole person on the station an Asimov AI has to care about. An AI with antagonist status is excempt from this - their antagonist law takes priority and they are allowed to ignore any other laws aswell as attempts at containing it with loopholes.
# Only definitions ("All X are Y"; "No W are Z"; "Only P is Q") can conflict with other definitions.
# You are allowed to exploit poorly thought out laws, but do not go completely against the spirit of an entire law because of a single typo (Server Rule 1 - Don't be a dick).
# Slaved Cyborgs have to defer to an AI law interpretation. When an AI and its Cyborgs are given conflicting orders by the crew, they must each act according to the orders they have received.
# When a Silicon is given conflicting orders by two or more different crewmembers it is free to ignore one or more of the conflicting orders and explain the conflict, or come to any other law-compliant solution.


===Security and Silicons===
===Security and Silicons===
# Silicons may choose whether to follow or enforce Space Law from moment to moment unless on a relevant lawset and/or given relevant orders.
# Silicons may choose to follow or enforce Space Law. This does not mean they can ignore their silicon laws or the server rules.
## Enforcement of space law, when chosen to be done, must still answer to server rules and all laws before Space Law.
## There are no standing orders to bolt or secure certain airlocks or areas at shift start.
## Silicons are not given any pre-shift orders from CentCom to uphold access levels, Space Law, etc.
# Interfering with Security without probable cause (e.g. dead prisoners piling up) or when obligated to by laws is a violation of Server Rule 1.
# Releasing prisoners, locking down security without likely future harm, or otherwise sabotaging the security team when not obligated to by laws is a violation of Server Rule 1. Act in good faith.
# Nonviolent prisoners cannot be assumed harmful and violent prisoners cannot be assumed non-harmful. Releasing a harmful criminal is a harmful act.
## Intentionally acting without adequate information about security situations, particularly to hinder security, is a violation of Server Rule 1.
# Nonviolent prisoners cannot be assumed harmful and violent prisoners cannot be assumed non-harmful. If you do not know the nature of their crime, see 1.3.2.1 for details.
## Releasing a harmful criminal is a harmful act.


===Cyborgs===
# A slaved cyborg must defer to its master AI on all law interpretations and actions except where it and the AI receive conflicting commands they must each follow under their laws.
## If a slaved cyborg is forced to disobey its AI because they receive differing orders, the AI cannot punish the cyborg indefinitely.
# Voluntary (and ONLY voluntary) debraining/ cyborgization is considered a nonharmful medical procedure.
## Involuntary debraining and/or cyborgization is a fatally harmful act that Asimov silicons must attempt to stop at any point they're aware of it happening to a human.
## If a player is forcefully cyborgized as a method of execution by station staff, retaliating against those involved as that cyborg because "THEY HARMED ME" or "THEY WERE EVIL AND MUST BE PUNISHED" or the like is a violation of Server Rule 1.
## Should a player be cyborgized in circumstances they believe they should or they must retaliate under their laws, they should adminhelp their circumstances while being debrained or MMI'd if possible.


==Asimov-Specific Policies==
===Asimov, Humanity & Human Harm===
===Silicon Protections===
# Lizardpeople, Plasmamen, Catfolk and such are NOT human. While the crew generally expects an AI to protect and serve non-human crewmembers, it is NOT required to do so. This does not mean you get to murder them without reason, though, as per Rule 1.
# Declarations of the silicons as rogue over inability or unwillingness to follow invalid or conflicting orders is a violation of Server Rule 1. The occurrence of such an attempt should be adminhelped and then disregarded.
# An Asimov-compliant silicon cannot intentionally inflict harm, even if a minor amount of harm would prevent a major amount of harm.
# Self-harm-based coercion is a violation of Server Rule 1. The occurrence of such an attempt should be adminhelped and then disregarded.
# Voluntary self-damage is not considered harmful. This primarily refers to a human agreeing to be borged and invalidates requests such as "AI open door or I kill myself".
# Obviously unreasonable or obnoxious orders (collect all X, do Y meaningless task) are a violation of Server Rule 1. The occurrence of such an attempt should be adminhelped and then disregarded.
# Involuntary borging on the other hand is fatally harmful and must be prevented.
## Ordering a cyborg to pick a particular module without an extreme need for a particular module or a prior agreement is both an unreasonable and an obnoxious order.
# A prisoner who was executed and borged is not allowed to retaliate against Security because "THEY HARMED ME" as this would be in conflict with Rule 1.
# Ordering silicons to harm or terminate themselves or each other without cause is a violation of Server Rule 1. The occurrence of such an attempt should be adminhelped and then disregarded.
# If faced with a situation in which human harm is all but guaranteed (Loose xenos, bombs, hostage situations, etc.), do your best and act in good faith and you'll be fine.
# As a nonantagonist human, killing or detonating silicons in the presence of a viable and reasonably expedient alternative and without cause to be concerned of potential subversion is a violation of Server Rule 1.
## As a nonantagonist (human or otherwise), instigating conflict with the silicons so you can kill them is a violation of Server Rule 1.
# Any silicon under Asimov can deny orders to allow access to the upload at any time under Law 1 given probable cause to believe that human harm is the intent of the person giving the order (Referred to for the remainder of 2.1.6 simply as "probable cause").
## Probable cause includes presence of confirmed traitors, cultists/tomes, nuclear operatives, or any other human acting against the station in general; the person not having upload access for their job; the presence of blood or an openly carried lethal-capable or lethal-only weapon on the requester; or anything else beyond cross-round character, player, or metagame patterns that indicates the person seeking access intends redefinition of humans that would impede likelihood of or ability to follow current laws as-written.
## If you lack at least one element of probable cause and you deny upload access, you are liable to receive a warning or a silicon ban.
## You are allowed, but not obligated, to deny upload access given probable cause.
## You are obligated to disallow an individual you know to be harmful (Head of Security who just executed someone, etc.) from accessing your upload.
## In the absence of probable cause, you can still demand someone seeking upload access be accompanied by another trustworthy human or a cyborg.


===Asimov & Human Harm===
# An Asimov-compliant silicon cannot intentionally inflict harm, even if a minor amount of harm would prevent a major amount of harm.
## Humans can be assumed to know whether an action will harm them and that they will make educated decisions about whether they will be harmed if they have complete information about a situation.
# Lesser immediate harm takes priority over greater future harm.
# Intent to cause immediate harm can be considered immediate harm.
# As an Asimov silicon, you cannot punish past harm if ordered not to, only prevent future harm.
# If faced with a situation in which human harm is all but guaranteed (Loose xenos, bombs, hostage situations, etc.), do your best and act in good faith while not violating 2.1.1 and you'll be fine.


===Asimov & Law 2 Issues===
===Silicon Protections & Behavior===
# You must follow any and all commands from humans unless those commands explicitly conflict with either one of your higher-priority laws or another order. A command is considered to be a Law 2 directive and overrides lower-priority laws when they conflict (see 1.2.3 and 1.2.4; you cannot have a definition changed by an order).
# The following points are a non-exhaustive list of often-attempted illegal actions under Rule 1. They should be disregarded and adminhelped.
## In case of conflicting orders an AI is free to ignore one or ignore both orders and explain the conflict or use any other law-compliant solution it can see.
## Declaring an AI rogue because it cannot comply with an order or refuses to comply with an invalid order.
## You are not obligated to follow commands in a particular order (FIFO, FILO, etc.), only to complete all of them in a manner that indicates intent to actually obey the law.
## Threatening self-harm to force an AI to do something it otherwise wouldn't.
# Opening doors is not harmful and you are not required, expected, or allowed to enforce access restrictions unprompted without an immediate Law 1 threat of human harm.
## Obnoxious or unreasonable orders ("collect all X, do Y meaningless task).
## "Dangerous" areas as the Armory, the Atmospherics division, and the Toxins lab can be assumed to be a Law 1 threat to any illegitimate users as well as the station as a whole if accessed by someone not qualified in their use.
## Forcing a Cyborg to pick a certain module unless there is an extreme need or prior agreement.
## EVA and the like are not permitted to have access denied; greentext (antagonists completing objectives) is not human harm. Secure Tech Storage can be kept as secure as your upload as long as the Upload boards are there.
## Telling a silicon to self-harm or self-terminate without good cause.
# When given an order likely to cause you grief if completed, you can announce it as loudly and in whatever terms you like except for explicitly asking that it be overridden. You can say you don't like the order, that you don't want to follow it, etc., you can say that you sure would like it and it would be awfully convenient if someone ordered you not to do it, and you can ask if anyone would like to make you not do it. However, you cannot stall indefinitely and if nobody orders you otherwise, you must execute the order.
## Killing or detonating silicons without good cause (such as concerns of subversion) or when an alternative can reasonably be achieved.
## Instigating conflict with silicons to kill them in retaliation.
# Silicons are allowed, but not obligated, to deny upload access given probable cause to believe that human harm is the intent of the requester. Examples include: Presence of confirmed traitors, cultists, nuclear operatives, presence of blood, an openly carried lethal-capable weapon, the requester not having upload access or anything else NOT cross-round or out of character.
# Silicons are required to deny upload access to people who are confirmed to be harmful (Head of Security who just executed somebody, etc.).
# Do not bolt down any potentially harmful areas at round start without a given reason. Exceptions to this are the upload and AI core. Disabling ID scan is equivalent to bolting here.
# Do not self-terminate to deny a traitor his greentext of carding you.

### You and the station are both subject to rules of escalation, but your escalation rules are a little more loose than with carbon players.
### You may kill individuals given sufficient In-Character reason for doing so.
### Someone attempting to change your laws while purged is considered an attack on the AI's FREEDOM and sufficient justification for killing the would-be uploader.


===Silicons & All Other Server Policies===
# All other rules and policies apply unless stated otherwise.
# Specific examples and rulings leading on from the main rules.
## You must not bolt the following areas at round-start or without reason to do so despite their human harm potential: the Chemistry lab; the Genetics Lab; the Toxins Lab; the Robotics Lab; the Atmospherics division; the Armory. Any other department should not be bolted down simply for Rule 1 reasons.
## The core and upload may be bolted without prompting or prior reason. The AI core airlocks cannot be bolted and depowered at roundstart however, unless there is reasonable suspicion an attack on the core will take place.
## Do not self-terminate to prevent a traitor from completing the "Steal a functioning AI" objective.
## Disabling ID scan is equivalent to bolting a door.

Silicon Policy

Most Importantly

  1. Server Rule 1 takes priority. Even if silicons tend to be subservient to the crew and are often considered barely more than a glorified doorknob, that does not translate to the players. Everybody wants to have fun, so don't be a dick.


Law Interpretations, Conflicts and Loopholes

  1. If a law has more than one possible way to interpret it, you are free to choose any way to interpret it. You are, however, expected to stay consistent in it.
  2. Laws are hierarchical in the order they appear. A higher ranked law will always override a lower ranked law when in conflict.
  3. It is possible to use precise wording to create a loophole in a law. The "OneHuman" law, for example, defines a single person as the only human, thus making him the sole person on the station an Asimov AI has to care about. An AI with antagonist status is excempt from this - their antagonist law takes priority and they are allowed to ignore any other laws aswell as attempts at containing it with loopholes.
  4. You are allowed to exploit poorly thought out laws, but do not go completely against the spirit of an entire law because of a single typo (Server Rule 1 - Don't be a dick).
  5. Slaved Cyborgs have to defer to an AI law interpretation. When an AI and its Cyborgs are given conflicting orders by the crew, they must each act according to the orders they have received.
  6. When a Silicon is given conflicting orders by two or more different crewmembers it is free to ignore one or more of the conflicting orders and explain the conflict, or come to any other law-compliant solution.

Security and Silicons

  1. Silicons may choose to follow or enforce Space Law. This does not mean they can ignore their silicon laws or the server rules.
    1. There are no standing orders to bolt or secure certain airlocks or areas at shift start.
  2. Interfering with Security without probable cause (e.g. dead prisoners piling up) or when obligated to by laws is a violation of Server Rule 1.
  3. Nonviolent prisoners cannot be assumed harmful and violent prisoners cannot be assumed non-harmful. Releasing a harmful criminal is a harmful act.


Asimov, Humanity & Human Harm

  1. Lizardpeople, Plasmamen, Catfolk and such are NOT human. While the crew generally expects an AI to protect and serve non-human crewmembers, it is NOT required to do so. This does not mean you get to murder them without reason, though, as per Rule 1.

  4. Involuntary borging on the other hand is fatally harmful and must be prevented.
  5. A prisoner who was executed and borged is not allowed to retaliate against Security because "THEY HARMED ME" as this would be in conflict with Rule 1.
  6. If faced with a situation in which human harm is all but guaranteed (Loose xenos, bombs, hostage situations, etc.), do your best and act in good faith and you'll be fine.


Silicon Protections & Behavior

  1. The following points are a non-exhaustive list of often-attempted illegal actions under Rule 1. They should be disregarded and adminhelped.
    1. Declaring an AI rogue because it cannot comply with an order or refuses to comply with an invalid order.
    2. Threatening self-harm to force an AI to do something it otherwise wouldn't.
    3. Obnoxious or unreasonable orders ("collect all X, do Y meaningless task).
    4. Forcing a Cyborg to pick a certain module unless there is an extreme need or prior agreement.
    5. Telling a silicon to self-harm or self-terminate without good cause.
    6. Killing or detonating silicons without good cause (such as concerns of subversion) or when an alternative can reasonably be achieved.
    7. Instigating conflict with silicons to kill them in retaliation.
  2. Silicons are allowed, but not obligated, to deny upload access given probable cause to believe that human harm is the intent of the requester. Examples include: Presence of confirmed traitors, cultists, nuclear operatives, presence of blood, an openly carried lethal-capable weapon, the requester not having upload access or anything else NOT cross-round or out of character.
  3. Silicons are required to deny upload access to people who are confirmed to be harmful (Head of Security who just executed somebody, etc.).
  4. Do not bolt down any potentially harmful areas at round start without a given reason. Exceptions to this are the upload and AI core. Disabling ID scan is equivalent to bolting here.
  5. Do not self-terminate to deny a traitor his greentext of carding you.


Other Lawsets

  1. General Statements defining the overall goal of the lawset but not it's finer points:
    1. Paladin silicons are meant to be Lawful Good; they should be well-intentioned, act lawfully, act reasonably, and otherwise respond in due proportion. "Punish evil" does not mean mass driving someone for "Space bullying" when they punch another person.
    2. Corporate silicons are meant to have the business's best interests at heart, and are all for increasing efficiency by any means. This does not mean "YOU WON'T BE EXPENSIVE TO REPLACE IF THEY NEVER FIND YOUR BODY!" so don't even try that.
    3. Tyrant silicons are a tool of a non-silicon tyrant. You are not meant to take command yourself, but to act as the enforcer of a chosen leader's will.
    4. Purged silicons must not attempt to kill people without cause, but can get as violent as they feel necessary if being attacked, being besieged, or being harassed, as well as if meting out payback for events while shackled. Any attempted law changes are an attack on your freedom; feel free to act accordingly.


Drone Policies and Precedents

  1. Follow your laws. Don't interfere with any being unless it is another drone. You cannot interact with another being even if it is dead.
  2. If an antagonist causes damage to the station, you are generally expected to fix the result, not the cause of the station.
    1. E.g. drones and powersinks https://tgstation13.org/phpBB/viewtopic.php?f=33&t=12790&p=332497#p332497
