PDAs should be able to take and send pictures - OMJ - 01-22-2020

(This’d be good for spy and various shenanigans- maybe PDA messaging the crew a zoomed in clown selfie every minute via DWAINE?)

Neat idea, but what if you needed a specific module or to click on the new printer device to actually produce the picture once its snapped? maybe not even necessary just a thought.

Instead of a specific module, make it an entirely new, upgraded PDA model that can be purchased from the vending machines.

this would also make spy a lot better

I would love to kidnap someone as a traitor and mock sec with evidence of the victims whereabouts - only to rig the place with traps.

bump, this is a good take. a module would be even cooler

hell yeah, good thread

Files already exist for PDAs, so a camera should just make a new picture file (maybe have variable size? e.g 1 tile, 9 tiles, 27 tiles, etc.) that you can send to others or intercept with wifi components. Then yeah, having a module should let you print a picture in your files onto a polaroid.


RE: PDAs should be able to take and send pictures - GORE - 05-28-2020

Yeah - normally take a picture but cannot print it - unless sending a packet to a printer,...

Other than that an easy printer-PDA-module to print a file that was taken by a camera.

I had an idea for a PDA/headset rework a long time ago. Making them modular with different storage, power, abilities, and form factors. Earpieces for those that want the basics, bigger things for folks that want more. Purchasable and debris findable upgrades.....
