[Request] Rear camera hotkey.

[S!rAssassin]

Please, add hotkey to quick look behind!

If game engine does not alloy to create window with rear camera, give us possibility to fast switch to rear camera with hotkey. Just like most car racing simulators.

Correct camera positions on ships - mandatory

Nobody? Come on, even X-Tension have hotkey to look back! And it’s been useful!

I would go further and make all the numkeys default config to be bound to angled views around the ship.

Additionally. perhaps pressing shift allows you to toggle free camera mode so you can quickly look around your ship in the middle of a fire fight would be pretty awesome too.

...numkeys default config to be bound to angled views around the ship.

Not default, but possibility to setup. And some UI upgrades for full experience third-person gameplay.

But in first-person we have full experience only with eye-tracker and have some with mouse (hotkey fo mouselook - present), but have nothing with X-Box gamepads!

Give us hotkey for free look by right stick!

It would be nice. But it would take time to implement. If you simply made the camera rotate 180 degrees to face backwards, you'd end up looking at the back wall of the bridge/cockpit.

The devs would have to add a new rear-facing camera node to each models of the dozens and dozens ships the player can control.

Also, please add real external view mode, with the reticule and ship info like first-person mode.

I like to look at my ships and not the boring cockpit all the time. Scanning data leaks really sucks that way. Current F2 points directly into engine exhaust and is blinding, while blocking the view.
