Title: auto view swapper
Post by: Kronos on May 22, 2002, 03:50:17 PM: Anyone ever noticed every once in awhile your view in the cockpit changes just like that. This cockpit setting happened in the middle of a fight between me and a spit.... needless to say, at this point I ran away. very hard to fight from this angle, and since I had to land right away anyway, cause the spit nailed my oil and fuel, well, it was touch and go.

BTW
I have Saitek X36 usb hotas. Maybe something to do with my stick?

I recognise that angle and yeah, it *has* happend to me.....but very rarely and usually in combat......so I hit the F1 key so fast I hardly notice it. Never got the view stuck there though, F1 always works.

That looks more like you moved your head rather than used view keys? F1 will reset it - I have the F1 programmed on my stick for quick access... :)

I landed it like that :D.

Post by: Skorpyon on May 23, 2002, 04:14:25 PM: It has happened to me, but the only time is if I am adjusting a particular view... all of a sudden it will uncontrollably slide to the left as you have pictured, and I have to use the "fixes" previously mentioned, then retry setting the view I wanted to set. It only started with 1.09 as best as I can recall.
