Real Fog of War Extended

In 1 collection by Squirting Elephant
Fog of War Pack
4 items
Description
Adds a new LED camera, 3 new late-game cameras, two additional research, displays the camera radius when selecting&placing and entities no longer receive cover from standing behind a camera.


Technical Details
  • Performance impact: Unknown. However using fewer larger cameras instead of many smaller ones probably increases performance.
  • Mod is XML and XPath only but uses code from the original author's assembly.
  • Can safely be added to an existing game.
  • Can safely be removed from an existing game providing you destroy any structures from this mod and stop any research in progress related to this mod.
  • Requires the Real Fog of War mod loaded BEFORE this mod.

New Features & Changes
  • All cameras now display a special display radius that display their viewrange when placing them.
  • Removed entity cover from standing behind any camera from 20% --> 0%. In my opinion camera domes don't block bullets. It also does not hinder movement.
  • Added two new expensive researches.
  • Renamed the vanilla camera to "small surveillance camera".
  • All cameras are grouped into 1 button in the "Security" tab.

New Cameras
  • Small LED surveillance camera.
    • ViewRadius: 12
    • Build-in lightning: Yes
  • LED surveillance camera.
    • ViewRadius: 20
    • Build-in lightning: Yes
  • Large surveillance camera.
    • ViewRadius: 25
    • Build-in lightning: No
  • Armored LED surveillance camera.
    • ViewRadius: 20
    • Build-in lightning: Yes
    • Indestructible: Yes


Notes
  • The original mod can also be combined with Glass + Lights for example to protect cameras against raiders.
  • The Real Fog of War mod was not created by me. I only created these modifications for quality of life and to prevent big endgame bases on large maps to literally spam hundreds and hundreds of cameras everywhere.

I'm using Yayo's version of Real Fog of War and was wondering also if Real Fog of War Extended could be made to depend on it.

any chance of making this work / depend on Yayo's version, since the old one will likely NOT be updated? (or a version for that version instead?)

Hi, Yayo made an edited Version of Real Fog of War for 1.2: https://steamproxy.net/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2267281712
I don´t know if he changed the assembly code, but if not, it shouldn´t be difficult to make both mods work together. (propably just adding a dependency)

Hey, wall mounted cameras? Any idea how to do them?

I just quickly updated it since the XML is 99% the same. However, the dropdown menu displays steel icons instead. Just a minor bug that shouldn't impact gameplay for now which I'll look into later. But at least it should be usable again.

No worries, and thanks :)
