New tool "drone"

Suggestions
1

Hey @james,

Would it be possible to have a new forge or tool that launches a small “drone”, or basically a camera you can look through to view your building for construction purposes without having to jump around and making “nerd poles”.

I think this could be very useful to view how your build looks and to see anything you might have missed without dieing from falls or grappling all awkwardly just to view possible missing blocks.

I would find this very interesting and it could potentially be wrapped into a robotics skill tree if you guys ever go that route.

Which I would love.

Thanks

Edit: expanding on the first couple of comments below.

A possible recipe could include something like:

25 ancient tech remnants
10 ancient tech components
3 ancient tech devices
10 flotation sacs
1 road runner eye ( due to long range sight)
1 hopper core ( for power/heat generation)
2 bonding agent

(Might be too many ingredients, just trying to give an idea for technology building)

I could definitely see some Flotation Sacs in this recipe, haha! Maybe even the Cuttle trophy.

I’d like to upgrade my drone by installing a slingbow so it can defend me while I build.

We’ve had a few suggestions like this.

I really liked this one to have a remote controlled Cuttle: Cameras or Pets? - #2 by ctrl-64

Yeah I am building a large build, and I am just thinking to myself. “There has got to be a better way to see flaws”

Hopefully james sees this.

Don’t forget the Circuit Blocks… those would do nicely in any “Robotics” recipes

Yes please! I don’t desperately need this, but it’s really useful for nerd pole -builders like me. It could also be used to make beautiful screenshots of builds or landscape. :smile:
