Barrel Roll?

[Haunt Fox]

How do I do that now (Experimental branch)?

A and D only seem to swing me from side to side now. I came to rely a lot on being able to barrel roll.

Q and E

And landing is now F

[Haunt Fox]

Ah, thank you so much.

Already found out about the F by nearly smashing into the ground trying to land with E. I have a tendency to nose-dive in fast.

because E is now a rght barrol roll

Gah, this new flight system takes a bit of getting used to, but I think I get it now. The further from the centre the little cursor is, the more wildly you swing everywhere.

It's a good thing drunk/erratic driving charges aren't a thing in space.

First thing I did was rebind a & d to left/right roll, and reset landing back to e.

I'm already used to it and I haven't seen it yet! I keep trying to roll with Q/E, nothing happens, then I remember and use A/D. I'm pretty sure that's more in-line with other flight/space controls.

P.S. It's just a roll. A barrel roll is when you're spiralling in like a corkscrew. Great way to avoid incoming fire and still go more-or-less the way you want to go.

Oh nice! I'm also playing Space Engineers which has such a button setup, so switching between games will be easier now

[Haunt Fox]

I can't hit CRAP now. I've had to reload because one-star pirates now TRASH me.

Its easier than ever to hit something.

This flight control model is much better than the old one.

That's like saying the new poo doesn't smell as bad as the old poo. Well, okay, sure, but it's still poo.

How the hell is this new control scheme better? Half the time I can't even see the center reticule any more because it's so faded out and disappears against the background. At least the old crosshair was white enough to kind of be seen against the background. Not to mention my eyes want to follow the cursor at all times rather than fix on the center of the screen.

Get glasses fam, your eyes sound like they're on their way out. Works fine over here.

I thought the new flight system was way better than the old one. I did struggle with it for a few min though, but once learned it is actually not bad at all. You can stay on pirates more easily now and follow them.
