[Idea] Diagnostics Tool #2

Had an interesting idea of an alternative more interactive way of getting breakerbox codes.

A rare scrap called "Diagnostics Tool". It has a screen, a left and right arrow button, a larger button in the middle below the arrow buttons, and a plug sticking out the left side.

Pressing E on a breaker box with it in your hand will attach it to the right side of the box. (in one of those black round port looking things)

Attached to the box, the screen turns on, showing a battery meter and the code type. Hitting the big button will play out audio of the binary code in morse code. Hitting the arrow buttons will switch to other codes to play. Each press of the big button drains the battery of the tool. Big button could have a chance for the screen to glitch and cause a random code to be executed instead.

Could have config options to have no battery, edit glitch chance, display the code on the screen instead of using audio, be detachable from the breakerbox, and be purchasable in the store.

Thoughts?

I like the idea a lot, but might be a little out of my wheelhouse for now 😅 I'll try to work on something like this if i have time
