0 SageThe13th Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 I like the third person camera. Though, it certainly would be nice to have the option of going first person. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Tchey Posted February 3, 2017 Share Posted February 3, 2017 It was asked before, to have camera blocks, but i cannot remember what was Koonshi position on them. I fully support them. I don't care much now about a "cockpit", only want to have camera blocks, with orientation, and a key to switcch between them. So if i want i can look at my wing, on my back, or up... band pilote this way, not only move the camera view with the mouse like now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Boxelware Team koonschi Posted February 4, 2017 Boxelware Team Share Posted February 4, 2017 Yeah this has been suggested a few times now, and we'll most likely add them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Phelan Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 While I hate zombie threads myself, my exact question is exactly to get news on this, so... What's the current plan/situation/stance on camera or cockpit blocks? I love Avorion, but once I get to larger ships, the lack of camera control kills it for me. :'( So this really is a critical feature request for me which I'd hope shouldn't take too much effort...? :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Boxelware Team koonschi Posted September 2, 2019 Boxelware Team Share Posted September 2, 2019 You can move the camera by holding ALT. We're planning a few camera improvements in the future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 XTRMNTR2K Posted September 2, 2019 Share Posted September 2, 2019 You can move the camera by holding ALT. We're planning a few camera improvements in the future. Happy to hear it! Will the improvements include the option to change the field of view? That would be greatly appreciated. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 Phelan Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 You can move the camera by holding ALT. We're planning a few camera improvements in the future. But I want to move the camera forward, into (or to the front of) the ship basically, or at least "above" it (so that a significant part of the ship is behind the camera). That still doesn't seem to be an option, unless I've missed something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 FuryoftheStars Posted September 13, 2019 Share Posted September 13, 2019 Yeah, it would be good to be able to get the camera to push forward as well. Long ships are a pain to maneuver with a camera position at the rear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
