Player Free Rotation in space

[zyxkad]

Free rotate player is off by default, you can turn that on in server config.

• Player will no longer have friction in space when FRP is enabled.
• Roll keys are Z for counter-clockwise and C for clockwise by default.
• You can adjust roll speed in client config.
• When moving your mouse, player body will move along with you. Hold LEFT_ALT if you only want to move the head.
• Double click LEFT_ALT to reset player head rotation.
• Press sprint key to rotate player's body behind view direction.
• Magnet boots now works in curios boots slot and can be toggled by X

Known bugs:

• Player can rotate through walls
• Player collision is inaccurate when touching corner, may become slightly unmovable or move through it (only when player has angle difference with the ship).

@blockninja124 I think we can merge this as an experimental thing first

With sprinting rotating you, won't that be pressed by accident a lot and be annoying?

Actually I feel like, no matter what keybinds we have, controlling the minecraft character in all rotations is rather tricky. But I don't have any alternatives, so I guess its fine for now. I'll see if I can review the code this week, feel free to remind me, but if I don't get round to it you can probably merge without my code review.

Sprinting only rotate your body and not your head. Which means it is a feeling of entering swimming pose.
