[REQ] Dynamic cinematic exterior camera

Post by Taro8 » Tue, 10. Jun 14, 17:12

Hi guys. I would like to request a script that, after pressing a hotkey, switches the camera into "cinematic mode". By that I mean camera switching to exterior view slowely panning around the ship. From time to time the zoom and the camera position can be switched.

A few options would be nice like:

*max and min zoom level
*max and min camera pan speed
*max and min time spent in one "scene"

The whole mode should switch off when hitting any of the view buttons or the hotkey.

I just like to watch my ship flying around. Something to make it more interesting and epic would be very much welcome.

Press F2, Double tap 0 (numpad) - use numpad arrows to control camera.

Scripts cant implement this, but the game already does.

Is there any way to increase the max zoom range, both in and out?

ment beyond the current ranges of +/-.
they are quite narrow for capital ships.
