Hello,
I decided to code a flying simulator just for fun and now I am confused. I wanted my dragon to tilt up when you press "W" and down when you press "S". The whole dragon flips out of order and turns awkwardly. Help would be appreiciated (did i spell that correctly?)



BTW the dragon model is in Media/Models/Static/D/DRAGON2.x

Thanks!

Why buy a game when you can make one?

Use the search.

'Flight' or 'rotation' should find you loads of info on the subject...

BTW, most flight simulators have 'W' as down and 'S' as up. But then again original games are best

I made this eons ago so its pretty sloppy.
I built it off a little red aeroplane demo I made way back then as well.

The matrix shifting effect is a little wonky since new versions of
DBP have been updated. Im sure some smart cookie will tell you what the problem is there.


Quick Keys

arrow keys to fly
shift to speed up
space to air brake
control to show the deadly fire cone of death.



There is no gravity, because this dragon is weightless when he flies

no dramas, there might be an issue with the matrix stuttering.
