Shock collar update almost ready to release
I think I’m pretty much done with the shock collar update, if the function is enabled you will get a fairly informative addition to the frequency menu that allows to reload & clear the shocker configuration. It also contains a brief summary of the intensity/duration settings (and links to the two supported services obviously).
The manual is already included in the TouchBound clickable zone menus so I did not feel the need to also have it here. The configuration options will only be available to the collar wearer, that goes without saying, but if another user is configuring the collar frequency, they will see the current settings. All this will be locked out when the collar is locked, as before.
I’ve also added a mandatory cooldown that forces a pause equal to the duration of the last shock, just as a spam/safety. It only affects the RL hardware shocker function, the normal shock function remains unchanged.
Because when I created the shock collar I only added a configurable duration, I adding configurable boundaries for both shock intensity and length. This way you can set a fixed duration/intensity, regardless of the shock length, or you can configure it to adjust strength and/or shock duration according to the shock length supplied by the remote.
Lastly, I’ve been playing with a really rough idea for a “simple” new collar/cuff set. I believe that it has some potential… But I have other things I should focus on.
