    An orientable block that looks through blocks behind it to act like a monitor/screen.

    Basically, if you have the backside of it against x layers of touching blocks, you will see through those blocks to the space outside.

    Neato application: Cool command bridges with giant "screens" of these blocks, outsiders can't see in like they could with glass.

    I've suggested this before. It's a much-desired feature for decorative purposes and for bridges hidden deep inside of ships.



    Like this right?
    It's kind of hard to tell exactly what that is. I think it's a room where the walls just look like windows into space. If so, yes, exactly like that.

    It's an image of the bridge of an imperial flagship from LOGH.

    The screens simulate it so it appears that they're open to space when in reality the bridge is nestled deep within the center of the ship

    That's exactly what the OP was suggesting then. I suggested the same thing some time ago.

    Starmade suggestions forum is LITERALLY "Simpsons did it"

    Can we get deco wedges like keyboards while we're at it for vanilla blocks? They would look pretty cool

    But what if your display module was facing the wrong way.
    (I do not know if this has been suggested already) Could we connect the display modules to cameras? or even sides of any block to see what that block is seeing?

    Actually pretty simple, all you need is a block with a partially or completely transparent texture that does not have the transparent tag on it. However, that will only work if you don't have corridors or things in the way.
