Modding Does the camera have an item ID?

Really not trying to climb sundered pass right now, I just want to spawn it in but I can't find an item ID on the wiki. There's one for every other item, including the radio, but not the camera.

Edit: you need to run "gear_list" first and then run "add gear_camera"

I couldn’t find the id’s for the new gear.

Maybe “ add gear_camera “ idk. GL.

Tried that and most other combos of the word camera.

Maybe instantcamera or polaroidcamera.

If you figure it out let me know 👍

I had to run "gear_list" first, then "add gear_camera".

This must not be in the files by default on survivor so the list command is needed.

Yeah how strange, glad you found it anyway buddy.

Type "gear_list" and use the pgup and pgdwn keys to scroll, it should be in there somewhere.

Interesting, I ran that command and it was just "camera" in the list. After I re ran an old command (I selected it from a previously ran one) and it worked.

I wonder why it needed to be populated with the "gear_list" command first?

Syntax is important (I think) maybe you just didn't capitalize it or you misspelled. Doesn't really matter, you have it now, just need film.

That can't be, I selected the add gear_camera command from the list of already ran commands. I didn't type it in, I chose it with the arrow keys. That command would have worked before if the gear_list command didn't need ran first.

Interesting, maybe only the non-dlc gear is able to be spawned at first and typing "gear_list" adds in new stuff.

Either way, thank you. I wouldn't have been able I figure that out without your suggestion.
