Camera gradually (configurable period) recenters and zooms out, which can be recorded in a stop-motion fashion.
Each camera has customizable resolution, frame rate and speed gain, and show their recording area on the map.
All screenshots are taken with full daylight or follow day cycle, and optionally show entity information.

Screenshots are stored in the script-output folder, with the configured sub-directory ('Save location' setting in the Mod Settings menu).
