A neat trick for custom camera angles (or "cutscenes"?) via teleporters

UPDATE!! This apparently only works for the host, as tested by my friend ThurDoDinok :frowning:

This was something I discovered completely by accident when building on a map I’m working on currently. Turns out, you can activate NPC dialogue THROUGH a teleporter by setting the teleporter exit to be right in front of an NPC.

This could be used for many things, really. I have a really quick example I threw together in this video below, but I really do think this opens up a lot of possibilities!

I could be completely out of the loop, and this could be a well-known trick, but if you didn’t know this either then hey! Here ya go <3

Ooo, I’ll have to make use of it!

Super useful trick, always wondered what else could be done for npc dialogues - Also love the dorky example so much - !

Nice find for the Out of Bounds NPC trick. Now I don’t have to worry about having disproportional invisible NPC obstructing my clicks in the middle of the build.

man, now I hope we’ll eventually get dedicated cameras when condo IO will come, but in the meantime this is super sweet
