RHat's answer is short and suite. (That's a pun, kiddos.)
Long answer is 'yes, and.' If an individual has enhanced senses, any information from senses that are
active at the time will be recorded as well. Now, I just looked this up to confirm what my memory was telling me, so:
Simrig: An advanced version of the trode net, the simrig records simsense experience data (both physical and emotive) from the wearer. Simrigs incorporate a sim module.
Highlighting is mine, to emphasize that not only does sight, sound, scent, taste, and touch (and any other weird stuff, like ultrasound and radio/radar/whateverthehell) get recorded, but also what you are
feeling at that instant too.
Technically, external simrigs can do all this, and in a certain famous adventurer, at least the non-emotive stuff
does get recorded via a simrig. However, at least half the fun of simsense (supposedly) is the ability to feel what the actor is feeling at the time, so full-sense + emotive simsense is the way to record. Now, with a trode net, this is sort of clunky and difficult and, well,
annoying to have to work with. This is, in part, why those whose experiences the studios want to sell - simsense actors, major athletes, extreme sport enthusiasts - get the implanted version of the simrig, and wear a repeater (range extender) if it's absolutely necessary.
Of course, not all people
like having that implanted ... or that other people might be 'listening' ...
Sometimes I hate this thing in my head.
My thoughts should be my own.
So should my shame.
