one of my fav things to do in elite was when going afk in station i would position my free cam almost in the mailbox, look inwards towards the center and detach camera and the cam would stay fixed in relation to the universe, while the station would spin. it was such a cool view even by itself, but you would also get ships flying right next to you landing/leaving the station. it was so cool and tbh id pay money to have a loop, if not live feed, of these pov of stations inside as a screensaver.
i just found out when i do it in ody it stays locked with station = no spin?!
why? am i doing something wrong? did something change? is this just another instance of ody not wanting me to play ody? ><'

Did you set binding control back to your ship after getting into free cam…there is a binding to detach and have your ship operate independent of your camera. That should work if your ship is docked. If not docked then the regular way should be working.

theres no way that rotational correction, which is a thrusters setting, should affect free cam mode while docked (right?).

Was at work before... Just flew over to Jameson and tried every possible setting I can think of and couldn't get the station to rotate around the camera while docked... Only way I could do it was to sit in my ship outside the station off to the side then move the camera into position. That's perfectly fine for Solo mode, but obviously not Open. Actually, I was a bit surprised that ships can now push your free cam out of the way, I think it used to go black while something was passing through you, but stayed in position until object passed... Nope, an asp explorer pushed my camera right out of the mail slot. Sorry I couldn't help.
