Entry Cameras:

[1] Entry cameras are special cameras that are activated when a player first links into the Age. These will often be fixed cameras that offer a unique vantage point at the spawn point they are associated with. An entry camera will remain active until the player moves outside of a very small region surrounding the spawn point. Once the camera has been deactivated, the only way the entry camera can be seen again is to link out and back into the Age.

Note that entry cameras require the xEntryCam.py script. The current status for this script is:

  • H-uru/Plasma (MOUL): Available in clients built on or after January 18, 2024.
  • Legacy MOUL: unknown
  • OfflineKI (TPotS): Available in OfflineKI built on or after January 15, 2024.
