A screen would be exactly like a brick, except camera objects could be assigned to that screen, so that if you looked at the screen, you would see where the camera is looking.
What this could be used for: 1) TVs 2) Surveillance Systems 3) Portals 4) Mirrors |

...this is going to require MAJOR scripting knowledge to quote unquote wire it all together, plus, it's going to make tons of lag. Imagine you enter a place and you have a Windows '95 computer. I know that NOBODY does, but imagine it. You find out it has one of these. You enter the place, and five seconds later, your computer, and your house, and the neighborhood around you, and your city, blacks out. Needs major work by the admins, or you can choose to have failish pic quality.

| Well, Of course it would be low quality(dpending on the size of the brick) But it would at least look somewhat good. and this is not a billboard gui, No-nono, What it would be is say, a mirror, I walk up to the mirror, I see a pixelated version of my characters face in(or on) the mirror :O. I look through a portal, I see a pixelated version of the other side in the portal :O. I look at a TV, I see a pixelated version of the "broadcast". Get it? |

| You can already re-direct your camera.If that's what your asking,if you're talking about bilboard decals,done as well.Billboards are images that follow your camera,so they're like 2D. |

| What I'm asking for is an object that is a brick, That is assigned to a camera, when it's assigned, the things that the camera sees are the texture of that brick. Like a mirror, or the portals in portal, or the TV screens in half-life 2(I think). |

| I don't want the camera to follow the brick, I want the brick to basically BE the camera. If that's in Gmod, then yes, that's what I'm talking about. |

Good idea! Security systems have been in use but only with instances. |

No. Why not new objects instead?
CameraFace - Turns that face of the brick into a camera. Like a decal. Can have pictures on front of it (Not shown in the relay)
CameraOutput - Turns that face of the brick into a screen that shows the image a CameraFace picks up. Like a decal. Can have pictures on front of it
CameraOutputLabel/Button - Creates a GUI that shows the image a CameraFace picks up. Can have pictures on front of it |
