Minor Announcements

Head of Staff announcements (ie the ones made via request consoles) are now "Minor Announcements". These announcements will play a sound now, and other in-game notifications have been changed to use their format, including when the Captain joins the game, Alert Level changes, Emergency Access, and early shuttle launch notifications.

They're basically meant to be big and noticable, but not as much as Priority Announcements. (ATTENTION ATTENTION ATTENTION)

Also, deaf people can no longer hear announcements, so no more abusing them to telepathically communicate to the deaf!
