Blob - Sensory nodes/picture in picture - Recusor - 02-01-2020

Hello.

Blobs are great. I had a fun, intense round this morning.

One of the hardest things about blobs is when you get big you cant see everything at once.

Perhaps a new module called a sensory node that allows picture in picture like AI has, so that you can observe at least one other area simultaneously?

Thanks to Courtier for the idea of the module.

As an additional thought, this may lead to accidental teleportation back to where the PiP is. Perhaps location hotkeys could be added? Something like "CTRL + SHIFT + 1,2,3,4" or some alternate hotkeys that dont interfere with the ability hotkeys, to save and return to set locations?

This would be in addition to the PiP idea.

blobs already have viewports like the ai has.

How do I use?

There's a tab in the top right corner for "Blob Commands" like how the AI has "AI Commands"

I do like the idea of having a tied to a special Blob tile though. Maybe a zero cost ability?
