Vehicle Eye Angle Correction

Description
Description

This patches the return value of a player's eye angles while controlling a vehicle pod to return the correct result, instead of the localised eye angles to the vehicle. It also reflects this change by correcting several pose parameters when controlling a vehicle pod to use the corrected angles.

This is an ancient bug in the engine that still remains to be fixed[github.com]. It's the reason why a player's head almost never faces the direction they're actually looking when sitting in any pod-based vehicle, especially when the vehicle has any arbitrary rotation to it.

ERROR: Tried to SetParentAttachment for entity point_viewcontrol (blackout_viewcontroller), but it has no attachment named vehicle_driver_eyes.

Very good, but if you use LVS it will kill the camera

It works on my server, just drop that bad boy into your 'lua\autorun' folder.

@whynotll83 i suspect not, unless the server enables clientside lua (sv_allowcslua 1) so that clients can run their own scripts

it should however work the opposite way, where only the server needs to have it installed and clients do not, since it will send it to them for downloading

does this work on servers that don't have this mod installed?

Gotta love the little things.
