Title: Insulation Changes: Hardsuit Changes

CE RIG:
-Enabled firesuit level protection
-Reduced slowdown to 2 (it is the deluxe model after all)
-Reduced melee protection to 30 (Tempted to put it down to 20 - CE should be protected mainly from the environment than the crew)

Miner:
-Reduced slowdown to 2
-Reduced melee protection from 40 to 20 (seriously? this was better than the Sec rig)
Miners job involves them traveling long distances through freezing cold vacuum to the ass end of no where. They need mobility more than

they need protection from the crew they only interact with for 5 minutes each round.

Sec Rig
-Increased melee and bullet protection a bit - point of the Sec Rig is for dealing with hostiles in space, majority of space hostiles

being carp (melee) and nukeops (bullets).
Slowdown 3 is enough of a counter balance to make them useless station side.
