Feature request - fixed external camera (at user location)

Post by will48 »

Pressing key '4' gives an external view which tracks the selected train as it passes. The camera position is determined by the game engine, and isn't always the best :wink:

I would like to be able to free roam to a desired spot, then press 'Shift+4' to fix the camera 'pivot point' at this location.

I know it's not the total solution you're after, but if you press 8 after the camera has been set, you can roam to any location using your cursors, and rotate manually with the mouse.

You can also use hold down CTRL and the arrow keys to go perfectly up or down, left or right without the aid of the house.
