RC Equipment
Remote controlled equipment can be used by player to safely explore the world, even potentially dangerous parts, i.e. areas with Ghost activity, while staying at a safer location
Scripting:
RC Equipment script should inherit from RCEquipment
, as it handles control state regulation and activation states.
All RC Equipment would need a player to activate it, specifying a control password to restrict access. The initial player that activates it gains initial control (authorization), while other players can see the device show up in their Remote Control
app on Observe Tablet
. While all players can view from the camera of RC Equipment, they must correctly input the set password to get authorized to control the device.
Balance:
RC Equipment could bring significant advantages to players, as it allows them to follow Ghosts, reducing their danger. However, there may be multiple Ghosts in multiplayer; thus, RC is not overpowered. In Singpleyaer mode, it's hard to determine if Ghost will not sneak up on you while the RC roams elsewhere.
Pricing should be fairly expensive for RC devices, as if a lot of them are present in a game, it could be overpowered. Setting a fairly expensive price will ensure balance, as players will evaluate the maximum reward they can get from a game to see if it's enough to cover the potential expensive risk of having too many RC and losing them all on death.
