Thermal Cameras

131 BakerOTB  2.7 years ago

I'm not sure how hard it would be to implement, but a thermal camera would be a pretty cool addition to the game. Maybe it could just be an option for the regular camera part so it doesn't have to be it's own part, or have some kind of key bind to toggle the imaging mode in the regular camera part or something. This would be great for attack helicopters & ground attack aircraft, as well as tanks & armored vehicles and whatnot. Propulsion parts (engines) would have the brightest glow obviously, and then fuselage blocks could also have a faint glow to them too in the camera.

    I think it would be cool with fox 2 missiles (they are thermal aimed too)

    i think adding monitors for you to be able to look at your camera inside your cockpit is a good idea, combined with this, and thatd be awsome

    Night vision should be pretty easy to add at the very least.
    Just some postFX filter when you switch to the camera

    Thermal and night vision cameras would be great. Atm you simply cannot fly at night

    @Mage2IsTriggered that’s what I was thinkin too, and I bet parts like that probably aren’t too far off since we got that cockpit update a few months back

    Thermal cameras and displays that could either be used as HUD or cockpit items or connected to cameras ad CCTV could be a really good adition
