EDIT, I reread what you said.
So just because the cameras are in that file doesn't mean people will get them?
Hi ,
By default, computer stations will not automatically populate with the custom cameras defined in the file. (But will likely become a feature in the next release) For a player to access the cameras defined in that file they will need to have permission to use `/cctv add custom` and / or `/cctv autoadd custom` to automatically do so.
I guess what I expected was that as an admin, I would add cameras to the custom file. Players would automatically have them added to their computer station. I didn't expect players would be adding their own cameras to the file.
I'm not adding my personal cameras to the file. I'm adding server wide cameras that I want everyone to have access to.
Players cannot add their own cameras to the file, however as an admin if you wanted to add your own camera to the file i.e. to serve a roleplaying purpose you could do so and use `/cctv add custom` or `/cctv autoadd custom`. This allows for the mixing of server owned cameras and player/admin built cameras, ideal for roleplaying communities.
If you want your players to only use the cameras provided by Facepunch you can give your players access to `/cctv add server` and `/cctv autoadd server`
If you wanted your players to have access to everyone's cameras (No privacy at all) you could give them access to `/cctv add all` and `/cctv autoadd all`
If you want your players to add only their cameras you can restrict the access to only their owned cameras using `/cctv add me` and `/cctv autoadd me`
Unfortunately, you cannot currently have computer stations automatically populating with cameras without the player running one of the `/cctv autoadd` commands, however, it is planned for the future to be able to do so in a configuration file.
I hope this helps you with your questions,
Let me know if there's anything else I can do to help.
