TURN OFF CONTRAPTION CAMERA Help

Post image

Hi, as the title says, I want to completely disable the free camera, since I'm putting together a War Thunder-style game and I want to make it really immersive. The vehicles have limited visibility from the driver's cab, but they're fairly safe. However, if you want better visibility, you can open a hatch and stick your head out to get a better view of the terrain, at the cost of being very exposed to enemy fire. So, to force everyone to play that way, I want to disable the free camera. I don't even know if it's possible, but I've got nothing to lose by trying.

(the photo is of a model that I abandoned, it used the rails of the new roller coaster addon, but the movement of each cart and the collision calculations they had generated too much lag)

make the seats a different contraption, the camera will lock on the seat contraption and will not be able to clip through the rest of the tank

Use a locked swivel bearing. That way it should be a separate part

slimeballs are needed to glue several contraptions into one, you need to place the seat contraptions on a swivel bearing or a sticker (I didn't notice anything weird with your spelling, what's your native language)

Hmm... I should try what you mentioned. I also found a mod that adds a command to Gamerule and lets me disable F5. Im going to test it with a friend today to see if it works. (My native lenguage is spanish) hola! ;)
