Spring RTS Engine

Hey guys, maybe a year ago I was speccing a game and watch as, in the beginning of the match, someone was doing a Jeffy rush to harass. As they were driving, they were making perfect turns like using WASD keyboard, but with far more accuracy and precision than you would get from FPS view.

They were really kicking ass driving like this instead of controlling via move orders!

I asked in chat how they were able to do this and they said it was a third person overhead lua script you could install. Didn't get much more out of em. Anybody know about this? It sounds freakin badass mang.

Also, anyone have a link to a list of the best widgets and etc to install for TA Spring? I'm not too noob but I've never dived into that aspect!

Ba has several threads of people suggesting widgets in the ba subforum.

great! i'll check it out and ask if there's any completed ones floating around, i know i saw what looked like an overhead control--- dude was driving right in between solar collectors, it was awesome.

I have an overheard unit control lua script: http://springrts.com/phpbb/viewtopic.ph ... 3&start=10

But it is a gadget, not a widget.

Could maybe be ported to a widget though?
