Skis scripting

[Kuri-san]

Me and Metome9 have been working on some slopes for some skis. It fun and all, but i wanted a sleigh, so i went about making one. I've got everything to the stage where it just needs tweaking but... i cant seem to find the part that turns mouse movements into pitch and yaw. Currently i can roll and that's about it for control.

Anyone still using this forum know what the script is? I used the jeep as a base with parts of script from the skis added in

Code: [Select]

   steeringUseStrafeSteering = false; on the vehicle datablock.
If you also like that style of control, you can also turn strafe steering off in your controls to make every vehicle control like that. But still do put that in.

I currently have it false anyways (the jeep doesn't do strafe steering). im after the controls to turn mouse up and down to turn skis up and down (to do tricks and the likes). Also, im after the left and right to do left and right pivot too... Its annoying, its used in all the blockland planes and yet I still cant find it!

The jeep does do strafe steering. It's set to true on the jeep.

Ah shot, your right! ill see if that fixes it. I think ill be able to solve it though. BTW, do you know why its refereed to as strafe steering? i thought that would be like the magic carpets strafing

It's because in strafe steering, you use the strafing keys to steer. (A and D).
It basically just swaps A/D with mouse left/right.

ah, that makes more sense now. Thanks for your help, was able to make it work perfectly... well nearly. For the skis you can use the a,d keys for left and right while on the ground yet that doesn't seem to work here. could also be related to the second problem which is the mouse turning is rather weak and I'd like to increase it, but the pan, roll and tilt (in energy i think it was) doesn't increase it. what value would I increase?

Once again, thanks so much, I would never have found that value in a long long time
