Keyboard Shortcut

Heffalump · 10-12-14, 10:06 AM

Hi,

It's been a few years since my last deployment. But now I'm back at sea, although I seem to have forgotten one of my favorite keyboard shortcuts.

How do you get the fixed external view? (Stays fixed on the boat, not F12)

thanks in advance.

It is the < key.

You may have a the wrong keyboard layout, or messed up the settings in Windows at some point. Afaik the proper key is indeed F12 on a US keyboard layout.

But there is also a realism option that prevents the free camera from moving. That is probably enabled/disabled.
