    Parking sensors? But why? Better working mirrors? We have working mirrors already, not sure how they can be improved. Reverse camera? That would be pretty cool and probably doable.

    A reverse camera is very possible, just a mirror texture with an overlay.

    Parking sensors also very possible. have 3 sets of nodes on any one space on a bumper.

    node A is very far from the bumper. C is very close, and B is in the middle.

    Give the nodes unbreaking, and then sense when one node is touched.

    when A is touched, beep at a slow rate.

    When B is touched, go a little faster

    when C is touched, go a solid beep.

    When was the last time you had to reverse into a tight space? See? It’s just not worth it.

    It’s still not worth it, working mirrors, yeah, I can see that as a use, but parking sensors is just a useless feature, and the devs definitely have better things to do.
