Action Replay

May 11, 2012 Woodlander link
It would be really good if you could record your fights/battles so that later you could replay them looking at the action from a third person camera out in space. When watching the replay you'd be able to move the camera to any part of the action, zooming in and out as needed.

There could also be a forum thread with top notch pilots giving links to their recorded victories that they've uploaded to a favourite file sharing site. This might also give a new angle to the pvp side of things as other people would be able to view, then comment on, someone elses victory/defeat.

This is already (mostly?) implemented in-game, however I don't think there's a working way to view recordings afterward yet.

I had a chat with raybondo about this after I told him about my queen bombing vids. He told me about the current inbuilt lua functions to do them, but wasn't surprised when I couldnt get them to work. They have not been tested. Sadly, I would use this feature, but for the meantime we are going to have to wait.

That was recorded live. But I could improve it substantially if this feature was perfected
