Default how do you make freecam get closer to things?

like the title says, i want to be able to get closer to things when using the free camera so i looked with 3ditor but could not find the value that controls it.

does anyone know what you need to change to get closer to things and where it is found?

i played around with all that stuff but nothing seemed to effect it, i foobarred the thing so much i had to replace the whole camera.dat file lol.

i dont think its connected to the freemove angles or height so im puzzled :hmm:

what im interested in is to close in to within about 5 feet of something but right now your backed off about a good 20 feet.

Have you tried the Ship Cam (',' and '.') keys? I'm not using any mods, and I've only played the Navigation training (over and over while I try to adjust my settings), but I've been able to walk around merchant ships like they were my own player ships.

well im trying to do that but outside the ship, move in close to coning tower, flak gun, deck gun, radar, things like that.

the thing is it stops the free cam from moving in closer but i cant find a value in the freemove section that controls it.

i just have no idea what value it would be called or where to look anymore.
