Contraband
Contraband Table
Note: Any items not on the list are not considered contraband, This contraband guide is meant to highlight tiers, for if you find items on a person during a search. -Not- for if they're -actively using/attacking people with them. Possession is a different charge than it's malicious use, and a person cannot be charged with a "future crime" just because they were caught with something.

Usage Notes
- Any weapon being brandished or misused can be considered mid-level contraband
- Certain items would be considered contraband after being seen in use. Those are marked with their respective grade colour.
- It is not contraband if the person with the item is intended to have it, obviously. For example, you can't charge a security officer for having a disabler, nor inherently can you charge a virologist for having a sample of a harmful virus.
- Do not stack charges unless marked. You are only allowed to apply one contraband charge, of the highest tier item you find.
- For authorizing the use of contraband, see here.
- Calls to arm the crew automatically waive contraband laws regarding firearms and melee weapons of high-level or lower.
- Miners are permitted to use weapons off-station freely while mining, but cannot have them drawn on station and must keep them non-visible whenever possible.
- Remember to gauge intent if possible. A firearm loaded with non-lethal ammunition could (and likely should) be considered lower contraband than one which is loaded lethally. Levels of contraband can be raised or lowered for specific cases, though use this in good faith.
