Vehicle question: How to pivot instead of bank?

Hello all,

I am using a basic motorcycle script that is modified for flying and suits my needs for most vehicles. I have a need for a vehicle which pivots into turns instead of banking. I thought the obvious answer would be to mess with the banking setting but if i zero out banking i cant turn at all. I just do not want this basic vehicle to lean into its direction changes.

Just curious if anyone has any insight or if you see any settings which may be preventing this. Thanks a bunch.

below is the vehicle parameters i have set up:

 
        //SET VEHICLE PARAMETERS
        llSetVehicleType(VEHICLE_TYPE_AIRPLANE);
        
        llSetVehicleVectorParam( VEHICLE_LINEAR_FRICTION_TIMESCALE, <200, 20, 20> );
        
            
        // uniform angular friction 
        llSetVehicleFloatParam( VEHICLE_ANGULAR_FRICTION_TIMESCALE, 2 );
        
        // linear motor
        llSetVehicleVectorParam( VEHICLE_LINEAR_MOTOR_DIRECTION, <0, 0, 0> );
        llSetVehicleFloatParam( VEHICLE_LINEAR_MOTOR_TIMESCALE, 2 );
        llSetVehicleFloatParam( VEHICLE_LINEAR_MOTOR_DECAY_TIMESCALE, 120 );
        
        // agular motor
        llSetVehicleVectorParam( VEHICLE_ANGULAR_MOTOR_DIRECTION, <0, 0, 0> );
        llSetVehicleFloatParam( VEHICLE_ANGULAR_MOTOR_TIMESCALE, 0 ); 
        llSetVehicleFloatParam( VEHICLE_ANGULAR_MOTOR_DECAY_TIMESCALE, .4);
        
        // hover 
        llSetVehicleFloatParam( VEHICLE_HOVER_HEIGHT, 2 );
        llSetVehicleFloatParam( VEHICLE_HOVER_EFFICIENCY, 0 ); 
        llSetVehicleFloatParam( VEHICLE_HOVER_TIMESCALE, 10000 );
        llSetVehicleFloatParam( VEHICLE_BUOYANCY, 1.0 );
        
        // no linear deflection 
        llSetVehicleFloatParam( VEHICLE_LINEAR_DEFLECTION_EFFICIENCY, 0 );
        llSetVehicleFloatParam( VEHICLE_LINEAR_DEFLECTION_TIMESCALE, 5 ); 
        
        // no angular deflection 
        llSetVehicleFloatParam( VEHICLE_ANGULAR_DEFLECTION_EFFICIENCY, 0);
        llSetVehicleFloatParam( VEHICLE_ANGULAR_DEFLECTION_TIMESCALE, 5);
            
        // no vertical attractor 
        llSetVehicleFloatParam( VEHICLE_VERTICAL_ATTRACTION_EFFICIENCY, 1 );
        llSetVehicleFloatParam( VEHICLE_VERTICAL_ATTRACTION_TIMESCALE, 1 );
        
        // banking
        llSetVehicleFloatParam( VEHICLE_BANKING_EFFICIENCY, 1);
        llSetVehicleFloatParam( VEHICLE_BANKING_MIX, .5);
        llSetVehicleFloatParam( VEHICLE_BANKING_TIMESCALE, 0.01);
        
        
        // default rotation of local frame
        llSetVehicleRotationParam( VEHICLE_REFERENCE_FRAME, <0,0,0,1>);
        
        
        llSetVehicleFlags(VEHICLE_FLAG_NO_FLY_UP | VEHICLE_FLAG_LIMIT_ROLL_ONLY);
        
        
        // remove these flags 
        llRemoveVehicleFlags( VEHICLE_FLAG_NO_DEFLECTION_UP 
                              | VEHICLE_FLAG_HOVER_WATER_ONLY
                              | VEHICLE_FLAG_LIMIT_ROLL_ONLY 
                              | VEHICLE_FLAG_HOVER_TERRAIN_ONLY 
                              | VEHICLE_FLAG_HOVER_GLOBAL_HEIGHT 
                              | VEHICLE_FLAG_HOVER_UP_ONLY 
                              | VEHICLE_FLAG_LIMIT_MOTOR_UP );

Instead of setting the x component of the angular motor (not in the flags, but when you are controlling the vehicle), set the z component.

Heewee You are a genius! Thank you for the info.
