Keyboard cabin view for pilots

Hello

For all the fly-bois out there who are using only keyboard to fly, here is a small mod that will allow you to use your keyboard keys to lookaround the cabin inside the plane.
You have to modify the air.con file in your settings.

Basically, you will have to add 2 lines of code so that it will look like this:
ControlMap.addAxisToAxisMapping c_PIMouseLookX IDFMouse IDAxis_0 0
ControlMap.addKeysToAxisMapping c_PIMouseLookX IDFKeyboard IDKey_Numpad6 IDKey_Numpad4 1
ControlMap.addAxisToAxisMapping c_PIMouseLookY IDFMouse IDAxis_1 1
ControlMap.addKeysToAxisMapping c_PIMouseLookY IDFKeyboard IDKey_Numpad5 IDKey_Numpad8 1

** If you want them vertically inverted then interchange position of keys instead of num5 and num8 it should be num8 and num5
ControlMap.addKeysToAxisMapping c_PIMouseLookY IDFKeyboard IDKey_Numpad8 IDKey_Numpad5 1

To learn how to edit the air.con file, please check out this topic:

In the end, you will have something like this:

That's great, I've been waiting for this for a while.
it wasn't practical at all to switch from keyboard to mouse just for that.
Thx Serebro

I don't know if I'll be using it, but it's great. And personally I play on vanilla, but it got me thinking - to what degree game modding is allowed?

Go vanilla, no added sugar.
