"Wearable" core

[samdeane]

(This idea has substantial scope I realise, and it's not all Lua, but I'm posting it here because the point would be having another place to host lua scripts).

Something I've wanted forever is some sort of "wearable core".

Something you can equip which has controller functionality, and can host scripts that move with your character, and are not attached to a vehicle or static entity.

They could be used for UI enhancement - to add HUDs and interfaces that manipulate things like your wallet, for enhanced comms via the chat window, and all sorts of other things.

You could look at it as a personal core, or as a custom tool you equip (though I think you'd want it to be active whilst using other tools), or even as "clothing".
