Admin tools and screen previews

Admin tools is an opt-in local diagnostics bar for the assigned curator: F-key operations that apply to your own player after server authorization. Screen previews render a read-only local page inside Zeus ? a full view or a bottom preview ? and are used for power, solar, terminal and briefing overviews. A server administrator can also request a temporary curator through adminCuratorRequest; only curators owned by that service are released.

• Nothing is shown to players: previews and diagnostics are local to you and close when curator access ends.
• Previews only read state; they never accept input back into the simulation.
• The terminal HQ view and the briefing slide controls use the same preview mechanism.
• Old admin and volunteer entry points route through the same authenticated services.

CBRN in session

• Rules are mission-authored. You observe; you do not invent exposure values from the Zeus camera.
• Hand out filters, cartridges or SCBA before a hazard. New masks and filtration packs start empty; SCBA starts full.
• Vehicles shelter occupants: exposure and drain pause until they exit.
• Toggle CBRN warnings silences the unprotected chirp and supply warnings for that player.

Faulty optics

FF: Horror > Faulty night vision equipment: replace now, continuously, stop, or stop and restore. Drop it on a soldier to target Selected unit. One continuous policy per mission; a new action cancels the previous one.

Persistence and volunteers

Reconnect persistence toggles loadout/position recovery through Utils. It never handles death. Volunteer / RP (CBA setting, off by default) lets you assign AI to a willing player: F1 accepts, F2 declines, END switches bodies, DELETE finishes. Disabling the setting releases sessions immediately.
