Hey,
I remember some months ago I did accidentaly used a "FPS mode on a unit" with controls with keyboard for move 'n all. I don't find it anymore. Was it a plugin or something removed, or the key changed ?

It's permanently disabled because commands given in FPS mode don't pass through luarules. As a result, it's unable to interact with all of BAs "normal" gadgetry and was a constant source of hacky code and exploits.

Argh, althought it was not of any use, it was awesome to feel being with the unit. :(
Nothing can be done to get the same feeling now ? What version of Spring should I get to use this view again ?

You can /cheat and to still use it, iirc. But it's not bound to a key anymore, so use /controlunit with the unit you want to fps selected.
