aero controls 0.2.0

[Redvan]

finally got up in aeros again, now that i got my roll on my xaxis.

The upped sensitivity is nice, but i'm curious as to what else was changed?  It feels different, i'm thinking yaw sensitivity wasn't increased with the rest?  Before it was all low, now i can roll and pitch fine, but yaw on my keyboard is rather lacking.

Why everytime i try to permorm a loop my aero will freeze?It`s like someone is pressinf "x" everytime i try to take a cut turn.In the begining i thought that was just the map(solaris).But after solaris i realized that its not the maps fault but that something changed the behaviour of aeros after the second patch..Well..What are we simulating here?I know that aeros are not like flying sources but i really dislike it behaviour in 2.0 patch.Or am i missing something here?That`s one of the reasons i promised not to return back to mwlll till it final release.

Sometime when you dive it's really hard too pull back up

Is that why I've chuckled at so many lawn darts recently?

Guess the pulling up could have to do with:

In general the aeros got so maneuverable that i have to use the mouse to make bombing runs and stick for general flying.

Well the aero was freezing cuz i was pressing x accidently instead right swift.Sorry for the confusion.Maybe i should quit smoking crack and talking smack...

notice the difference in these two videos:
pre 0.2.0:

and footage from 0.2.0:

notice how much smoother it was pre 0.2.0

My guess is that the sensitivity was increased substantially, thus, every time you nudge the mouse to either side it'll begin a roll.  This makes it hard if you want to just pull a turn, where you dont need roll.

My suggestion to fix this is decrease sensitivity (not back to pre 0.2.0 levels, as that wasn't enough), but increase the roll rate of the aero.  Roll rate and sensitivity should be two separate settings I'd imagine, is this so, devs?  But perhaps this isn't possible since the mouse isn't set up as a virtual joystick?


Roll rate:  How quickly the aero will roll once a roll is initiated.

Sensitivity:  How much movement is necessary to initiate a roll.
