| Summary | 0000573: Rotating submodels do not rotate in tech room | ||||
| Description | Radar dishes, solar panels, gas collectors etc. don't rotate when the model is viewed in the tech room. Why not? This should be fixed. | ||||
| Additional Information | This would be helpful to modelers testing their rotation speed and direction etc. without having to load up a mission. And it looks cool. | ||||
| Tags | No tags attached. | ||||

Been like that since retail |

While it wouldn't be a terrible idea to impliment this, I'm sure it's not a trivial change as turrets use rotation too and their behavior would be quite undefined. Anyway, this too is a feature request and not a bug. |
|
|
Turrets do use rotation but fs2 can tell them from simple rotating subobjects, after all in-game they aren't constantly turning. |
|
|
I wasn't sure that turret/weapon code was fully loaded in the techroom. If it is, this should be trivial and I can think of no objections to having it in there. |
|
|
I think the submodel rotation info is loaded along with the mission and not the model. Each instance of ship keeps this rotation info. There's probably a way to do this, but its far too much work for only the ships that would need it - Faustus, Knossos, and the few ships with rotating radar arrays. |

|
Is this a feature request? They do not belong in mantis, so please spam the forums. |
|
|
It could be viewed as a bugfix, but I would tend to agree. I'd leave it open for a while though. |
|
|
Has this been open for a while then? |
|
|
I suppose. Not sure what to do with it. |
|
|
I'm just going to close this. |
