About the PR

Adding an AccessReader to a Antimatter Engine with engineering access

Why / Balance

By analogy with my last pull request #30394 with the addition of AccessReader to a particle accelerator , this will make life more difficult for the raiders and also make the antagonists think a little more. Plus, it will protect you from manipulation by random guests of the department. This can be hacked using EMAG

very bad for getting power going without any engis, now youd need to break ces locker to get an engi id

The same can be said about the presence of doors to the department in this case. It also complicates. I don't think this is worth focusing on.

doors can be opened freely once power is lost, the same cant be said for this

They can be blocked before the light goes out. I say, it is not worth considering in this plane, since if there are really few players, a small map with automatic energy generation is suitable for them. And finding access is not a problem in any case.

ame is not that dangerous as singulo/tesla and it's the easiest power source in case of lack of engineers
without access to ame the only power source is solars what really won't be enough

If there are few players, a small map with automatic energy generation will suit them, as I said. And if for some reason you chose a large map with a small online, then either the captain or someone from the command will come to the rescue, or you can get into the captain's cabin and get an ID card. And the engine is quite dangerous if you do not make sure that someone has set extreme values. It will explode before the fuel runs out.

Every low pop map with the exception of reach relies on the AME as the sole power source. Atlas can barely do it without an AME.
This just encourages stealing IDs just to setup power.

Unfortunately, I don't think so

I brought this up for discussion with the maintainers and the agreement was that this is not needed. Adding it to the particle accelerator was an exception due to the high griefing potential. Thank you for your contribution.
