Privacy Levels

Room Logs & Privacy Level

Every action gets logged in the room for later viewing. However, not everyone can see the log of every action. Be sure you're familiar with your action's log's privacy level before doing them, as there are some things you might just want to keep a secret. Simply put, there are multiple levels of privacy:

Template:Invisible > Template:Private > Mush > Template:Covert > Template:Secret > Template:Public

Name	Details
Template:Invisible	Actions that leaves no log whatsoever, and is thus invisible to everyone, including yourself.
Template:Private	Logs that only you can see.
Mush	Logs that are only visible to other Mush on the ship.
Template:Covert (Furtive)	Logs that are only visible if action is committed in the presence of installed cameras (100% guarantee), or a person with Observant (25% chance). When a person is afflicted by Victimizer, all their Template:Covert actions turn into Template:Secret.
Template:Secret (Discrete)	Logs that are visible if action is committed in the presence of a camera or another person, doesn't matter Mush or Unknown Character. The Observant skill allows the owner to sometimes detect a Template:Secret action that was committed in the room, past or present. However, its usefulness in this regard is limited as it doesn't show what action was committed, who commited them, or when it was commited.
Template:Public	Logs that are visible to everyone.
Template:Special	Logs that have their own unique rules.

A general guideline to follow in identifying the privacy of actions:

• If you can't see your own action, neither can anybody else. (Exception: Tracker can see in what direction characters leave rooms, while everyone else can't)
• If a Template:Covert/Template:Secret action is caught, you'll know it from the bright red colour on its room logs. Everyone else will be able to see it, too, when they're browsing the logs in the room
• If a message refers to "You" in second person, only you can see it.

So, does this mean any Template:Private or Mush level actions are always safe to carry out? Not necessarily. A person with Torturer can force you to spit out your last few actions, regardless of privacy level for 1 ! The number of actions that gets revealed increases (up to 8) as your goes down. The reason why this skill bypasses privacy is because it doesn't reveal logs...it reveals actions. In addition to that, the Premonition skill allows the owner to see the last action of a person in the same room, at the cost of 2 . Like Torturer, it bypasses privacy levels as it views actions.

Also, keep in mind that a single action can produce multiple logs at different privacy levels. For example, when you infect the cat, the entire room sees you cuddling the cat (like normal) as a Template:Public log. However, there'll also be a Template:Private/ Mush log for yourself.

Other thing you should keep in mind about room logs: Tracker allows the owner to view room logs in the last 16 cycles. Everyone else can only view them for 8 cycles. (Note that even you can't view logs of your own actions after they disappear).
