Mouselook Vehicle Help

Hey Folks,

Working on a mouselook hover vehicle. My seat is kinda leaning back. What process would I use to set the initial rotation of the vehicle.

Example:

My seat is at a 25 degree angle.

Unfortunately when I fly my craft it also 25 degree angle, when I want it flat.

Im not sure what vehicle flag I want for this.

What can I do for this?

Thanks.

You could add a prim with a transparent texture as the actual seat and put it (link it?) on or around the seat model.

But how would I adjust the rotation of how I sit... Or would I just have to make a more leaned back sit "animation"

Also I believe there is a way of changing the flat default axis or whatever using a vehicle flag. I tried using VEHICLE_REFERENCE_FRAME and it worked great in mouselook, but outside of mouselook the vehicle would tip backwards and rotate.

Maybe there is a way to reference VEHICLE_REFERENCE_FRAME only in Mouselook but not when out of mouselook.

In the SitTarget (or whatever it's called) you can also set the position and rotation.
I did that for my inner tube 'vehicle' :)
