I've never noticed it, so if it's true, ignore this, but the lerk model should pitch up and down to fit the flying angles. Also posted in S&I, but I figure, hey, we have threads about blocking ideas, and this suggestion is unique to 3.0, might as well add it here. Also see skulk model rotation on walls, it's pretty much the same thing.

    I personally think it's better without pitching up and down. When you look at most raptors they dont pitch up and down when going to kill something, they just sorta go down like the lerk does. Banking turns in flight would be cool, but i dont even know if that's possible.

    Also note that there is no difference between a lerk flapping and a lerk gliding from a 3rd persion view - it always shows a flying lerk as flapping.

    As far as I know, "AFAIK" means "Anterior Flying Aviation Interpolating Kiosk". I'm not sure how that has anything to do with NS, however.

    As for the flight pitch, I would put this one on the board of "Ideas that are cool, and might get implemented" However the "Bugs" and "Balance" boards come first <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile.gif' /><!--endemo-->
