Unique Glove Fibers

[angelofallars]

Description

Cherry-picked from Delta-V, originally by @WarMechanic (DeltaV-Station/Delta-v#1455).

Original Description:

Every pair of gloves now has its own fingerprint, so items can be traced back to gloves which can then be traced back to people.

Why / Balance

Evidence is very important to court cases running smoothly, so detectives now have more evidence that can certify whether or not John Syndicate's behaviour is valid. Traitors are now encouraged to either clean evidence off syndicate gear regardless of glove status, or use a disposable pair of gloves specifically for handling syndicate gear to be disposed of later.

Aside from being required to obfuscate evidence you leave behind, there is now a value proposition to searching glove prints of departments. Wearing gloves that does not correspond your department can punish an unknowing detective into searching the wrong people.

Technical details

FiberComponent.cs now stores a Fiberprint variable like FingerprintComponent.cs. The code for assigning a fiberprint is the same as the fingerprint. When evidence is placed on an object, the fiberprint is concatenated to its localised fiber type.
