Obviously you know that ships twirl upon going 'yellow' but the orientation of the ship completely changes, and when you get back INTO your ship it flies in the wrong direction to wherever its pointing.


Just fix the twirling upon death thing its pissing ridiculous, doesn't look cool and is just a nuissance.

Fun fact: all ships point directly "up" the Z axis without us modifying them with a anglex=90 mod on their visage.


Short answer: impossible to solve, without altering the code base.

All models point directly up the Z axis.

I've found that upon entering my ship It's not immediately clear which way my ship is ACTUALLY pointing.

For example it looks like I'm thrusting sideways before it fixes itself within about 15 seconds, but in a DG those 15 seconds can be quite crucial if you are say .. in a croud of 8 GB's :l
