Could we have the option to set the look-around mode key to toggle rather than while held?

That option already exists in the control options "fix turret to camera" or something like that.

It would be better if you didn't have to toggle it all the time.

he means free targetting mode, as in moving reticule around screen. I currently have mine set to middle mouse key.

Imo setting it to toggle would be bad as when I use it, I use it for a split second to take a shot then return to normal aim.

That's why he's asking for a configuration option for it Smile

He means an option where you don't have to hold it. As in, a single click for it to stick kind of thing. That'd be handy I suppose.

Oh of course the second right mouse button, or would that be the middle button, which is also a wheel.... Seems like that could cause people to switch weapons if they have an overly touchy mouse. Big Grin

..... Of course thats all besides the point, you would still have to hold the right flippen mouse button. Same issue, different key.

That's what the options menu is for; so people can set it to toggle or hold.

I use the "V Key" when in a tank, almost always. It's good for looking around completely behind you and hitting people who happen to be C4ing you. I also use it (as right click) in sniping for a more consistent target.

You mean you don't lock your camera to the turret? Whoa.

When using third person holding v helps much.. In a tank it's vital to hold V

In a tank it's vital to not hold V and set "Lock view to turret" or similar in the options.

We probably all use the lock-camera-to-turret option, so this is mainly for gunning in third-person.

The guy basically means a toggle option for 'Look-Around' mode. There's a toggle for the 'Lock-Camera-To-Turret', but it has got nothing to do with it.

A toggle for free view would mean you have to keep toggling it back to turn around in your screen, instead of easily letting a button go to do so. Once it's toggled you cannot turn around, but you don't have to hold a button to use free aim. I think it's better to have it like it is now, since you have to slightly adjust the free view angle quite often.

A toggle for that would just make it harder or more complicated in some situations, you'd just be more busy setting the camera to the right angle.

There should be no option like that at all.
