Driver View

[rhban]

A new thing - at least I think it's new, as I hadn't noticed it before. For no apparent reason, when in Chase View, the camera seems to lock just above the drivers car and the arrow keys work almost in reverse. Mostly, this has happened to me when a train has exceeded 120 kph, but recently it's happened to a completely new consist as I was trying it out for the first time to see what errors I had made in the driver's instructions .

I thought this behaviour was related, not to speed, but to how far away the driver was from the original, fairly small layout, but having made a few small changes, it seems to be related to track, which is weird since I am using the same track type throughout. Still, when I re-laid a section to straighten out some unnecessary tight bends, my view changed back to normal on that section. There is even a bit where I am flat on top of the driver's car, then up in the air where I prefer to be, back down again and then back up again, where I must have left a section of the original track. Weird!
