1st person cam is fine the way it is imo but it would be very helpful if it were possible to look to our left & right. Being able to take a quick peak to check your inside coming into bowl corners in sx would be so sick. Being able to check your inside off the start as well.

Set it up so when you press the key/button the camera starts to pan to the left/right until about 2 or 3 o'clock. Also make the camera pan back to the original position as soon as you release the button so you have full control of how far you want to look over for specific situations.

Maybe even have the option to customize how quickly the camera pans as well like a slider for "camera pan speed"

Idk just throwing ideas out there.

What I really want to do is move the camera positioning code to javascript so it can be fully customized. It needs to be a separate context from the gameplay script though.

That was quite an all-nighter for me!
