Setting alliance member permissions

[Max]

Currently, only the leader can change permissions.

If a new member is accepted into the alliance and the leader isn't on, they don't get any permissions

Suggestion: allow officers of the alliance above a certain security level (e.g. 200) the ability to change permissions of other members in the alliance (but not change leader ofc, we don't want to encourage mutiny now )

And in addition, allow the leader to set a number of "global" permissions that is added to every existing member and every new who joins. Saves the hassle of going through 19 sets of adding the same permissions early round, and a way of fixing the new members up with a limited set of permissions so they can function as a full member.

Probably because you commented on the previous one when it was suggested 2 years ago

Haven't looked at the old thread, but would it be a good idea to directly tie permissions to certain security levels, then you just adjust the security levels of people? Not sure if that would actually make it all that much easier than it is now, though.

if the leader had a flexible system to work with, I could see it working well enough..

I would also like to see a co-leader option, to allow you to give at least 1 other person the ability to set permissions. (Maybe set what permissions they can affect?) It will help semi-active leaders that let their co-leaders do most of the running.
