Just a place to write after running into a few niche issues while building my map

Sucks there were a lot of roadblocks when you’re creating your map. I think I can look into fixing some of it though!

The first and biggest heartbreak of making this map was learning that there would be an issue with draw distance as it prevents you from seeing other players from much of a distance. This rendered all of the vantage points I planned out useless which is entirely my fault for not checking this with a friend before starting.

This is something to do with networking, but we could look into adjusting for Condos and extending out network distances so they show up. A customizable setting might be good way to go here.

[0.18.9.0 Players are invisible when looking through distant Camera IO instances

Summary When looking through a camera that’s placed outside of the draw distance of the player, any player that’s in the Camera IO’s FOV is invisible. I believe this is because the cameras make use of the player’s position when checking what to draw. This is inconsistent with the Post Processing Volume, which does apply to camera views. Logically, the camera should make use of its own position when checking what should be drawn. Steps to Reproduce You need 2 players for this. Player 1 will b…

This bug is also similar issue, though I think a band-aide solution would be to fake teleport the players to where the camera is. I can look into solving this bug sooner than later.

While working on this, I noticed that Camera IO doesn’t have a way to exit using CTRL like the Security Camera item does

I can look into adding this in the next update. I’ve been itching to do more Condo IO work and I’m wrapping up Accelerate SDK tools now.
