    Hey guys. I am having trouble with my "3rd person" camera angle. I start the game and when the vehicle spawns the camera angle is facing forward like it should. Now when I start to go forward, the camera angle switches to looking backwards, and vice versa. This is extremely annoying for me when all I want to do is go forward. Is there anyway to lock the camera in the "3rd person" view angle? Thanks.

    EDIT: I even tried zooming in and out with "numpad 9" and "numpad 3" but the camera still wants to look in the opposite direction I am going.

    EDIT: One other thing; how would I go about making a new spawn point where my car could always spawn at?

    I don't think there is a lock camera feature as of now (don't quote me on that), but pressing 5 on your numpad re-centers the camera.

    As for the spawn, go into the editor by pressing f11 and move the "spawnsphere" to where you want to spawn.

    Thank you very much. The recenter camera button helps a lot!

    EDIT: Okay, so I move the default spawner to where I want it to be and when I hit "R", I just spawn back at the normal spot. How do I fix this?

    The only way I could make that work was by moving the spawnsphere and the car at the same time and then hitting Ctrl+R to reset the car at the new point and then saving

    I see. I did notice that Ctrl + R made the car spawn where I had hit the buttons. I guess that is all for now. Thanks guys.
