SRV Turret mode should be usable with head tracking (example video)[/h]

I would agree please allow the option for the VR users. I have enough things to control in that mode it would be nice if tracking worked. By making it switcheable the players that prefer to shoot backwards can leave it as is.

Hello,
The first time I've used the turret mode of the SRV, I've expected that the turret would look in the same direction as I do: LIKE THIS.
Unfortunately the control axis for the turret does not work like that. Now they work like arrow buttons or joystick axes:
Head look 45° to the left/right/top --> Turret rotates in left/right/top direction for ever
To stop the rotation you have to look again ahead of you. This is not usable with any head tracker/ eye tracker / VR and is really disappointing since the technology exist now already. I know it will not be possible to shoot backwards with head track but you know what: I do not shoot backward anyways because I can drive backwards already
So what what we need is this:
Head look 45° to the left/right/top --> Turret looks 45° to the left/right/top (same direction)
The good thing Nr 1 : The turret control like this is already possible with the mouse so we know the turret can move that fast.
The good thing Nr 2 : There is already an option for this in head look settings (DIRECT vs ACCUMULATOR mode switch).
The bad thing: The turret settings is missing this DIRECT mode switch...
Please FD, it is just an settings option we need.
