Can Screen be adapted to show a live feed from a camera/bot?

No. Sorry. The Unreal engine doesn't provide the means for that (unless you mean what can be achieved by ScreenSlideMap, but I guess you're talking about a 3D live feed).

Maybe that'll change with Unreal 2... I hope it.

funny, ive seen a ut weapon with a remote control missile, like the alt redeemer fire..but instead your view doesnt change, a little view box pops up in the bottom right with a millises-eye view rendered onto a canvas, now..i dont know anything about scripted textures or canvases, but couldnt you do something similar and sent the information to a screen texture?

have a screencam actor, a screen texture and let the cam send information to that screen..

just a thought
