Camera #372

Open CUBE0R opened 2 years ago

CUBE0R commented 2 years ago

Feature description This feature is a camera, it works by taking an image which is a bit ahead of your camera, you can adjust this for zoom, and will show a live preview of this on your cameras viewing thing before your image is taken. Live display can be disabled in settings for performance purposes. This has a few settings: Heat setting, this is a simple thermal display, when you take a picture of something with it, its heat is showed in hues of increasingly warmer colors, this can work by assigning temps to correspnod with color values. Xray: this works by using the same x-ray bone showing effect that happens sometimes on electrocution. Regular: takes a normal picture, but also has zoom or whatever. Images can be printed out and will act like a normal object, albeit they wont collide with the camera they came out of.

Feature purpose It would help to add more mechanical objects to the game, while still being intuitive for any random joe who isnt into more complicated contraptions. This could be used for xray machines, infrared detectors, whatever, or an automatic picture booth.

Additional context Images can be optionally automatically saved to files if you want to save them for later like a screenie.

Although I don't think cameras would have a use in this game in the slightest, an x-ray would be a cool item to add to see someone's skeleton, could be cool for hospital builds and such.

i mean, you can already make xray machines by extremely low voltage electricity with a resistor, although you need to tweak it to get the sweet spot as the more voltage, the more he is gonna be injured, but you want a good ratio of shock flashes.
