I'm unsure how to use roles in 1.1.4

[DizzyKungFu]

I use roles to manage selecting ships from particular fleets, and this was once behind the scenes, but now in 1.1.4 these "secret roles" are visible to Comms and Science:

Is there a different way I should handle this? The related code is below:

if Skaraandecloak1 == 1:
    Skaraanjeer1 = 1
    players = all_roles('__player__, tsn')
    shared skaraans01 = prefab_spawn(prefab_fleet_raider, {"race": "skaraan", "ship_roles": "skaraans01, raider", "fleet_difficulty": DIFFICULTY, "START_X": -62000, "START_Y": -200, "START_Z": 42000})
    shared skaraans02 = prefab_spawn(prefab_fleet_raider, {"race": "skaraan", "ship_roles": "skaraans02, raider", "fleet_difficulty": DIFFICULTY, "START_X": -60000, "START_Y": -200, "START_Z": 44000})
    skaraans02list = to_list(role("skaraans02"))
    for baddie in skaraans02list:
        shared skaraan02a = to_object(baddie)
    set_face(skaraan02a.id, "ska #fff 0 0;ska #fff 0 3;ska #fff 1 4;ska #fff 1 1;")
    comms_broadcast(players, "HOSTILE SHIPS DE-CLOAKING NEAR DS-106", "red")
    for p in role("__player__"):
        if p is not None:
            COMMS_SELECTED_ID = station106
            COMMS_ORIGIN_ID = p
            m = f"""MAYDAY! HOSTILE SHIPS HAVE DE-CLOAKED NEARBY! PLEASE HELP!"""
            comms_receive(m, title="ALERT", title_color="red")
            sbs.play_audio_file(0, "../missions/Drop_Off/audio/DS-106-02", 1.5, 1.0)
            sbs.send_story_dialog(0, "ALERT", m, get_face(station106), "#444")
    ->END

The first role in the list is used as the spawned object's SIDE. The sides are what are displayed in the checkboxes for comms/science. So in your prefab_spawn data, just move "raider" to be first in the "ship_roles" attribute.

If you want to hide the side, prepend a "#" to the side key. You cannot current spoof a side, but that will be coming in 1.2 when side can have a different display string vs. the "key" string.
