* Moves teleblocker/beacon implants to the techweb, new research node. Exile implants can now be printed (#81230) ## About The Pull Request This adjusts some of the techweb stuff related to security implants. I meant to do this in the original PR but got LAZY because I wanted to push it out the door, and then the feature freeze happened. Teleport Blocker and Beacon implants have been moved from cargo to the departmental lathe, printable at (where else?) security. **They can no longer be purchased from cargo.** They are behind a new research node, which requires Subdermal Implants and Miniature bluespace research. This node costs 2500 points. Exile implants can now be printed from the security lathe. Security Implants now have their own lathe category. This also slightly adjusts the descriptions for the implant case designs to reflect their contents. ## Why It's Good For The Game First and foremost -- I really had meant to do this in the original PR. Throwing these implants into cargo was intended to gate access to them until later in the round. In hindsight, cargo doesn't really accomplish that in the way I'd hoped. It's still available roundstart, and no price will change that. Having these be handled by science is a much more sound idea. (Also security already has enough to be ordering from cargo, and not nearly enough reasons to be yelling at science!) Exile implants should be easier to access, especially for how little impact they actually have. The simple convenience may be the difference between a peaceful resolution or being beaten to death in the back of the brig. Adjustments to the lathe categories, descriptions are for slightly better UX. * Moves teleblocker/beacon implants to the techweb, new research node.
