more viewpoint options

--- Quote from: fly77 on September 20, 2018, 03:16:42 pm ---I actually just now discovered with great pleasure that when in an airplane (Cessna) by pressing CTRL+V you can switch between different viewpoints inside and outside the plane. Very nice ! Seems to work also on some vehicles (tatra truck) allthough with much fewer viewpoint choices. Would be nice to know if different viewpoints can be set in the javascript file of planes and vehicles.

Perhaps you already aware, but pressing "c" lets you move the camera around, changing the distance with the scroll wheel... And yes, you can add more cameras in the script.

Thanks. Would it be possible to create also a fly-by or drive-by camera mode from within the javascript ? Is it possible to access the world coordinates of the vehicle/plane from within the javascript ? and then maybe use these to place a "temporary" fixed camera ?
KW71:
I don't know much about scripting (I should say "almost noghint"). But if what you want is to see your plane flying from outside, why not just press "c" and move the camera around?
fly77:
"fly-by" is when an observer sees the plane passing near him...such ad this .
I will try if i can move the camera in time from within the script trying to move her by the plane.
patmarrnc:
is it not already possible in the 2nd camera position (press C twice) to zoom out for the purpose of watching a vehicle drive or fly by? I rarely fly the aircraft, but this works with cars and watercraft.
