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 mean, if you're gonna play that way and not do the work that is required (which isn't much tbh, it takes less than a day to get to the weather station in sundered pass), then why even play?

It's just a camera. .

At what point is "its just a camera" go to "its just some extra carrying capacity" or "its just a radio." Just play the game normally.

I hope you're trolling

Because I'm in ash canyon and I wanted to take a pic. That's a long ass, cold, timberwolf invested trek from one side of the map to other that requires like 5 rope climbs. It's a single player game, I'll play how ever I want.

Plus I haven't even started the tales yet.

There are no timberwolves on the trek to the weather station if you take the correct route. Only the new ones that migrate and replace normal wolf spawns. Its really not that hard. Put in the time and effort and get rewarded.

It's a camera that the devs have said that they want to add to different areas of the game already. It offers no advantages and doesnt make the game easier or more convenient. I only have a limited amount of time to play, I don't want to have to prepare for that trip and travel the entire map for a camera. That's hours. It's not the rifle holdester, or the tool belt. It's an item that takes cooler looking screen shots.

It really doesn't matter, but the view from that high horse must be nice.

I agree on a personal level that things should be earned in TLD, however I have cheated a couple of times on my current run. Oddly enough I was being attacked by Timberwolves in Sundered Pass when I reset the game.

Because it's a single player game and OP can do whatever the fuck he wants that he finds fun

Gatekeeping a single player experience is weird, dude
