You need a cog. I think the one you're looking for is called something like 00_multicam.cog.

Not quite. Look at the cog. You set the screen (surface) and the cameras (things). If you don't want the cameras to be seen you can probably use a ghost as the camera thing.

The surface is the screen you activate to look through the camera.

ummm
that sorta' explains it
so when the user activates the thing i have set as the console it will display what the camera 'sees' in this surface? or the surface is what's being displayed?

When you activate the console, the camera will see what the ghost sees. I don't know what the surface is.

The surface is another trigger. You can set it up to see through the cameras when you activate either the console or the surface.

i've worked with this before, yeah the surface is optional. A more cooler thing to do is put in an Assassin Droid, and have it be set as one of the cameras, it shows it walking around, it's pretty awesome. Maybe you could have a spying mouse droid! you can set anything to be a camera i think.
I am lost and could care less if someone finds me.
