Camera tilt on non-linear turning #136

Closed MajorLunaC closed 9 years ago

MajorLunaC commented 9 years ago

I noticed the player camera tilts when you turn in a non-linear way, such as turning diagonally, or moving the cursor up or down while turning. This kind of makes me dizzy, and may cause motion sickness after a while. Could use a normal turning motion.

There is an option that servers can set (MODE_DRUNK_CAM or something. I personally hate this too. It is in there because it was original an early AoS clone, but I couldn't play too long with that without feeling a bit off. Ideally, I'd prefer this was made a client option, and default to off. It just doesn't make sense to move like that.

I think one does feel like that when in the corresponding psych condition (I don't mean drunk/high). Idk if others feel so too, but somehow the drunk cam in iceball looks completely ugly to me, while I am fine with the ones in vxw and AoS .54

Verdict: There are people who want it off and nobody I've asked insists on having it on by default. So the default is now OFF.

Individual servers may enable this in common.lua (MODE_DRUNKCAM_LOCALTURN - don't use the _VELOCITY one unless you want to throw up). There are no plans to make this a client toggle and there are good reasons for this decision. If a server owner wishes to go against this notion, they can feel free, and then be completely unsurprised when they find that everyone turns it off or something like that.

As a verdict is reached, this issue is now closed.
