Binoculars 2: the visualizing - murl - 06-21-2022
Binoculars and visualizers have always been lackluster in terms of actual benefit gained in comparison to the other items available in the detective shop. Even back during the vanilla days of TTT these two were rarely seen as they have limited situational usage.
I have a proposal: buff the binoculars by shaving off most of the body ID time and maybe combine them with the visualizer.
Here's a quick example of something I put together in my attempts to learn lua again. It spawns a temporary visualizer that lives for 5 seconds on the body which is enough for 1 death scene:

Also, as a bonus (because visuals are fun) I gave them their proper 3rd person model/animation:

Let me know what you think, and if you have any other ideas for functionalities that Binoculars 2 should have.

how does this interact with body bomb? does it spawn the explosion at the body or at the identification spot?

Holy shit this is sick. Unlimited visualizers or does it only have it for x amount of bodies?

Binoculaurs (now) on their own don't trigger body bombs, I spent hours trying to test it and finally got it to work just for nothing to happen
It would be nice if these triggered the body bomb
Edit: Also while I'm here, lower the price of binoculaurs in the shop to 250k-500k points so people have some sort of incentive to buy and use it

I figured that's fine with all of the use you can really get out of them. After all, most the time you can only sus someone if the visualizer provides anything helpful.

I'd leave the toilet paper 3D model only for the meme, the additional functionalities are very innovative imo

As common sense as that situation might be, there's always the "possibility" that he is looking at someone standing between the killer and him. I think you could def put sus on it and kill in OT but there's always the chance he's staring at someone directly behind or in front of

I really like this good work Murl.
