RC avatars

[sporefreak]

Anyone here seen the movie Surrogates? (Good movie, do watch)
If the Surrogate dies the user dies, Have an expensive upgrade that makes a failsafe that will eject the user when the Surrogate dies, Destroying the failsafe while safely ejecting the user? maybe even making the "Controller" unusable? Damaging the user a lot, killing someone without at least the 3rd armor. Dunno.
I do love the idea of the remotely controlled drones though. would make exploring a bit less worrisome leaving your main base completely to itself.

Maybe the drones could "lag" when you get to far. like, take an extra 0.1 second to "Recieve commands" every 100 tiles away from a controller.

Just throwing a mess of ideas about.

I had been thinking about how to do a mod for remote controlled avatars for a while now, I finally got around to making it a reality.

I've been working on one myself too.
