The laser projector is a complex placeable item that can be used to create custom light shows and art using presets and scripts. It can be bought at Songbirds for 25,000 Units.
To use a laser projector, place it down, and right click on it to begin editing its properties. You can also press E on it to toggle it on and off.
All editable properties for laser projectors.
Settings that affect the projector itself.
The angle that the projector is facing. You can set the angle from -95 degrees to 95 degrees.
The field of view of the projector; affects how narrow the projection is. You can set the field of view from 0 (straight line) to 100.
You can change the opacity of the laser beams from 1 (opaque) to 0 (invisible) by using a slider.
Settings that affect what the projector projects.
You can change the shape of the projection. Default is line. Each shape is given a code consisting of the letter S and a number (S0, S1, etc.), which is used for sequences.
All available shape presets are:
You can make an expression for your laser projector using code. Similar to shapes, each expression will have a code consisting of the letter E and one number (E0, E1, etc.), which is used for sequences. Making expressions is very complex, and a detailed guide explaining how they work and how to make them can be found here: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1136940994
You can make the laser projector show a repeating sequence of shapes and/or expressions that switch on an interval. The interval can be changed from 0.1 seconds to 300 seconds. To make a sequence, you have to use the code for the shape/expression you want to use, and then put in a comma (no spaces). For example, inputting "S0,S3,E0" would project a line, then a circle, and finally an expression.
You can change the size of the projection on the X and Y axes using a slider. You can also toggle animation, which makes the X or Y axis constantly change sizes. This can be used for making things like raves in your Condo.
You can rotate the projection by using a slider.
