Ah yes, another one of those massive-headache parts about LSL that really put me off some aspects of development. The only prescription is to get help.
We're all familiar (you'd think) with flight code like the X-51, Hammerhead, etc.
But me, being the functionality nut that I am, have what would seem like a simple request,
but is a minor headache for me. And since I'm starting a small space fleet, this kind of thing is going to be desperately needed.
I need to make a spacefighter operate in hovercraft (auto leveling, directional controls) when in 3rd person mode. But when I go into mouselook, I need that thing to start pointing where I'm looking, and for the controls to change into up,down,slide left, slide right.
You'd think that would be easy, right?
Well. I'm going to have another go at it later tonight, but I wanted to toss this into the Tips forum and see if anyone hasn't already covered this.
