    I began to think about having alternative orbit camera, where the center point of the camera focus could be changed in the car. Currently, it's locked into the front seat-area, middle of the car, but I would wanna do some experiments, that how it would feel and work, if the center point would be the engine of the car instead.

    You can use "relative camera" moving the center of the frame using WASD

    Why do you want to change the focusing point to the engine area?

    You can try editing the orbit.lua file (BeamNG.Drive/lua/ge/extensions/core/cameraModes.
    There are quite lot of possibilities that opens by doing that, and results are quite interesting pretty much always :D

    ps - Press CTRL+L to reload all lua files, incase you want to see your changes live.

    Thanks, I'll look into that. :) Does it work as coordinates, when I change the place of it ? I'm just curious, that how it will affect into the overall driving feeling and because I would wanna see the engines more close up with orbit camera whenever I want. :)
