Camera Parts

[Tebok]

Just like how today's probes fly by planets and snap pictures to transmit back to earth, I think cameras would be a great idea for KSP. Camera parts would of course be in the science tab and when used on missions, it rewards science points. They'd be most useful in the earlier stages of a career, where you don't have the necessary resources to send manned missions to other worlds and have to rely on probes/rovers to get to Duna and so on.

Welcome to the forums, Tebok.

I've moved the thread to the more appropriate Suggestions section.

we have a few mods that have camera parts and some that reward with science, also telescopes. but implementing it into the stock game for early stages is a really good idea. You get a better feeling for the advancements of technology.

But then we need building that get these pictures or Tracking Station will have button that show newly taked pictures and every time you get farther then kerbin pictures quality get less but if you have better antenna pictures will be better

also welcome to the forum have a good time

Maybe for saying hello

Yes yes yes. I've wanted to suggest this so many times, I think cameras would be great for probes. Surely SQUAD could make a system that determines how much of a planet is visible, etc?

Then why don't you suggest it , remember as many members supporting a suggestion , the rate of it being added get higher

Eh, I thought it would seem stupid to suggest it when another thread with the same idea was still there (this has been suggested earlier as well)

actually there is a observatory in the R&D facility complex

This is a good idea,I support it.It seems that it can make the game much more realistic and fun to play in the early stages.
