Could video calls in KSP be possible?

[Varsi]

So I stumbled upon a Minecraft mod that lets you make video calls from in-game "device".

This might be quite interesting function to use with for example CCTV mod. It's just such a trouble to pick up a phone or open Skype window to have video call with someone! As a bonus it might be fun to call some other Kerbal (as in another game session somewhere).

Unfortunately I have no idea how something like this could be achieved.

It likely could, but it could become a big problem with privacy.  I think having an external one would also be faster.

I really don't see why this would be useful at all, but then I rather like the UNIX paradigm of "lots of tiny programs that each do one thing, and do it well".

Call me cynical, but I doubt any videoconferencing that got modded into KSP would be better than the existing solutions, and if it isn't better, why would I want to use it?

Obviously not useful feature at all but I'm just amused by the idea of a Kerbal having a video call to your phone (would of course be the player talking not the Kerbal...)

If you are amused by it you should enjoy writing the code for it.

I agree.
