    Could the ETK have a reversing camera just like Audi does?

    Only problem with this is it would require a second camera and renderer. With Torque3D, this just isn't going to be a good idea, would lag to hell. Which is why we don't have split screen.

    but... but, but, but it could work in a similar way to the dynamic reflections

    No. The reflections are done in the renderer. A reversing camera would require a second camera, as explained before.

    It seems more hassle then its worth.

    Many games that have mirrors and secondary cameras run them at very low res and with very low details, its obviously not off the table and in my opinion very possible.

    But those other games don't use Torque3D. It would be really performance heavy on BeamNG.

    I don't really see much use compared to the hassle it would be to make it.
