Rhials 980ef98e04 New operative reinforcement option: Intelligence Overwatch Agent (#82307)
## About The Pull Request

Introducing a new Nuclear Operative reinforcement option: The Overwatch
Intelligence Agent.

Equipped with multi-hudglasses, they have an advanced camera console,
station alerts, and bodycams of every operative! If something can be
known, they will know about it.

They can also remotely pilot your ship. Finally, everyone can ride in
the Steel Rain without getting stuck on the station!

This role spawns in the formerly unused outpost just north of the nukie
base. With a few shelves of supplies and some tools in the back room,
they can set up their workplace however they like. This also gives them
something to work on while they wait for the operatives to gear up.

As you can see, it's rather cramped and the lights are quite dim in the
backroom. Set it up however you like, this is how I did mine:

Total price? 12 TC per agent. It might get a bit cramped, but you could
buy a second to make sure the first guy doesn't get lonely!

This turned into a 30-commit ugly because the bodycams were originally
meant to be accomplished via a refactoring of the spyglass kit. Big
mistake that made me shelve the project -- until Melbert's simple
bodycam component conveniently did exactly what I needed in a much
simpler way.
## Why It's Good For The Game

Having a "guy in the chair" for your kickass murder operator squad
enables more brainy strategizing, and is thematically sound. Also,
nukies have the opportunity to bring in another player to participate in
the fun!
## Changelog
