[Request] Change camera face...

[Pendrokar]

I know there is a command that allows to make the overhead and other camera modes turn in 180*. So a useful widget would be with what you could change the rotation by 90/180/270 and the minimap rotation would be changed too!
Or the widget would automatically change camera face after start, just by looking from the players start position. Like on Speed_Ball map.



Lua script checks the start position (Let's say it's on the third quarter and the team boxes set 1+3 vs 2+4) and the lua widget changes face of the camera and the minimap towards East.

I can imagine this being very confusing and not useful O_o

If a lua script does it automatic it would sure very confusing.
If it is in the users hand (hotkey or buttons near the minimap), then it would be a great addition.
But sorry to say, it is not possible to do so with lua atm. 'Cos you can't freely rotate the standard overhead camera, you can only rotate the minimap (a great addition btw if you use /viewtaflip).

I really don't look forward to the day where I would have to change "go east" to accurately describing the terrain my ally needs to go to.

You man to rotate your camera so your always at the very bottom regardless of where on the map you start?

Ok forget automated! Though there is a command /viewtaflip it doesnt flip the minimap that the thing that would confuse ppl!
