I can imagine something of a smaller alert similar to when CIC staff or SEA latejoins for the role in common chat made by ARES, "Fax Tubes for USCM Provost have been recalibrated." If you send a fax before then, you could get a warning that it may not be answered. With a fax operator, you can be pretty sure it'll get adressed. Very much a QOL for any roleplaying since there'd be confirmation that what you're writing isn't going to be a timewaste. |

About the pull request
This project is intended to update and overhaul the fax machines, in regards to who can contact who and how. I have implemented some of these changes within this PR already, but more is to come.
It also adds a dedicated role for responding to faxes, split into subsidiary jobs for each main faction (USCM/USCM Provost/WY/TWE/UPP/CLF/CMB)
This role is experimental, and will either be a dedicated staff role, or potentially opened up to players. The method of this opening however is still to be determined, whether it will act like a traditional whitelist, or be operated differently is as of yet unknown.
There is a wiki page for the fax responder role that can be found here: https://cm-ss13.com/wiki/Fax_Responder.
