CCTV Cameras

Place real CCTV cameras inside a property and watch the live feed remotely from anywhere, you don't have to be home. Cameras are a security fit-out with their own cap, and they draw power on the electricity bill.

Placing camerasCopy Anchor Link

1. Stand inside the property → radial → Property → Cameras.
2. Choose a label and a camera model, then place the camera on a wall with the freecam cursor (models can be cycled mid-placement with ↑/↓).

The camera stands in the world as a real prop. Manage them (list / add / remove) from the same Cameras radial entry.

• Models: Config.Cameras.props, 9 validated CCTV props (overridable).
• Field of view / pitch: Config.Cameras.fov (55) / Config.Cameras.pitch (-8).
• Cap: cameras in the fit-out cascade (block override → Config.Stash.GlobalCap = 4 → Config.Classic.FitoutCaps = 2).

Watching live, from anywhereCopy Anchor Link

Every property is instanced (its own routing bucket), so to see occupants the viewer temporarily joins that bucket.

1. F7 → open the property → "View Security Cameras (N)".
2. The interior and its occupants render locally; use the arrow keys to cycle between cameras, Backspace to exit.

• Works from anywhere, the whole point is watching while you're away.
• Access: property managers/tenants, or anyone with property access.
• You can watch the property you're currently standing in too.
• Watching is refused only if you're inside a different property, or while the property's power is cut.

Interaction with security & powerCopy Anchor Link

• Cameras draw electricity: Config.Electricity.DeviceDraw.camera (8) per camera per cycle. Set to 0 to disable. See Utilities & Billing.
• Tampering the circuit breaker cuts power and kills live camera viewers for the outage window.

Notes & limitsCopy Anchor Link

• Entrance-mounted cameras aren't visible to bucket-0 passers-by (no global spawner), a known limitation.
• Cameras placed inside IPL interiors correctly pin the interior so the feed isn't a void.
