Mouselook

[Kampfkrapfn]

Hey there,

 

would you please consider to add the option for a mouselook ?

 

Why ?

Simple reason: whenever I start mining a giant asteroid with my auto-mining turrets, and meanwhile go get me somethin' to drink, my cat starts playing with my mouse - and thus stops my ship from mining.

 

C'mon, you've already thought a bit more 'bout that, gimme your ideas!

Yes, I did. I'd say put a checkbox into the options menu to activate mouselook.

 

And then? How's the ship gonna be steered then?

I'd say you could map the RMB to activate the steering ...

I've suggested this kind of thing a pretty long time ago, but more in line with a present free look being a Toggle function, so you can tap the key to switch between 1.)using mouse to look and fire around your ship and 2.)steering your ship in the direction you are/were looking.

 

Regarding your issue, you can use F2 to switch into keyboard steering mode and back.

Thank you, your idea may be helpful as long as my cat doesn't start using the keyboard :D

I just found a key binding that seems to be intended for using mouselook. Standart binding is num-5. It's just .... the ship is still steered when moving the mouse.
