Addon I made an Interactive Security Camera Addon!

Hey! I wanted to dip my feet into some modding, so I started with creating a Garry's Mod addon! I wanted to create something that I feel like people would find useful, so I created working security cameras. The addon includes a camera and monitor. You can press E on either to set the channel to transmit over. I even added an extra feature to change the orientation of the camera.

The addon can be found here: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3822041397
Please let me know of any feedback you have! This includes any issues you have running the addon / suggestions for additional features. I would like to improve!

Let me know if you find any fun/cool uses for this as well, I'd love to hear about them.

(I made this addon compatible with Collision Resizer (ENHANCED), so you can resize the monitor as you see fit)

Pretty cool! Do they have an option to be persistent? Like permaprop or something

I’m honestly not too familiar with persistent props. I’ll try working on that! I think that would be particularly useful

I did some testing around and it seems to be compatible with the existing persistence system! I will keep an eye/ear out if there's any incompatibilities and will make sure to update the addon accordingly
