The cartoon television

The television plays a cartoon with a cat and a mouse, each an object of its own.

One of the trap valuables in R.E.P.O. is a television that plays a cartoon: a cat and a mouse each talk on their own timings, the screen crackles with static, and the set is a trap as well as loot.

In play

One of the trap valuables is a television, and it does not only sit there. It plays a cartoon, with a cat and a mouse as objects of their own, which is why the screen has something happening on it before anyone touches it.

Both animals talk. The cat has a talking time, a pause, a count, a starting and an ending scale and two sounds, and the mouse has the same set, so the two can be talking at different rates rather than being one animation.

The screen has static of its own. There is static, a curve for it, a time and a timer, and an outro to finish it, which is how the picture can break up and come back rather than simply switching.

It has a screen, a background and a light. Keeping the three apart is what lets the television throw light into a room while the picture on it changes.

It runs for a set time, and it is active between a shortest and a longest period. That pair is how the game can leave the set off for a while and then have it come on by itself.

It is a trap as well as a valuable. There is a trap television object, a state for the trap being done and a flag for the set being activated, so watching it is a decision rather than a free look.

It has a loop and sounds for starting and stopping, and it knows whether it is the local copy, which is how the same television can be heard by one player and by the whole crew in the right way.

The two pictures beside this entry are the game's own: the frames the cat is animated from and the frames for the mouse.

What this entry does not tell you: how long the cartoon runs, what it does to you, or what the set is worth. We have not verified those numbers, so we do not print them.
