Redeemer flight controls

[whitehouse3001]

Can someone help me with the redeemer flight controls for PC? Just a side note, I have my y-axis inverted, if that matters.

I've only really played UT and now UT3, so I may have missed some change in UT2k3 or 2k4, but I can't figure out how the flight controls are supposed to work in UT3.

When I fire the 2ndary of the redeemer, the flight cam comes up, but it looks like the rocket is just sitting right in front of me floating in mid-air. THe flight cam is facing in some random direction, but the rocket is not moving. If I move the mouse, the rocket moves up and down or rotates left or right just slightly, but doesn't move the rocket. If I hit a direction key (WASD), the camera flips to some other view and the rocket begins to fly, but if I release the key, the rocket returns to the motionless state, or if I hit another direction, the camera changes to another angle and continues the flight.

I can't figure out how the direction keys are supposed to work for flying the rocket... Thanks!

Some weird bug. Rocket must move itself without pauses and camera should be INSIDE rocket.

Whew, it was just a bug, I restarted the game and everything is back to normal. Weird

When its like that the only way to make it work is to hold your forward key down. Or at least that worked for me. Now you just have your character running all over the map lol.

left click fires it - dumbfire no lock
fire it at a node from a distance, it will detonate when it hits it.

right click launches it in 1st person flight mode
try to be in a safe spot (hide) when you launch it
((if your are killed while flying it, it terminates it))

you actually fly it to your target, then left click to detonate it.
use the mouse to fly it, ie, move the mouse across your mousepad to change direction.
for me up is up, back is down, left and right.
i dont know what reversing the Y does for you.

as far as i can tell, you cant speed it up, or slow it down.
it CAN be shot down while in flight, tho, terminating it immediately.
DE-NIED!
