Scripting bridge look views

[Lurok91]

Know this has been asked a zillion times before, but:

How do you in bridge script write tactical view so don't zoom to Felix but keep locked forward on viewscreen?

Is there a way to keep player pov locked ahead on viewscreen so don't look to other crew even when press F1 keys? 
(need this for co-pilot seat shuttle versions)

specific script code examples welcome

thats an easy one

look for this section of code in the character's script:
(ill use Nebula Bridge Felix for example)

look under

Code: [Select]

def ConfigureForNebula(pNebFelix):
to find:

Code: [Select]

# Add common animations.
AddCommonAnimations(pNebFelix)

pNebFelix.SetLocation("NebTactical")
pNebFelix.AddPositionZoom("NebTactical", 0.8, "Tactical")
pNebFelix.SetLookAtAdj(-2, 0, 75)
# kDebugObj.Print("Finished configuring Felix")

the SetLookAtAdj is an x y z axis (**i think) where the camera points, and the 0.8 value is how close/far to zoom...  
the lower the number, as far as 0.8 in this case, the closer the view...  a value of 1.0 will not zoom at all, but will just look to where x y and z tells it to...

with me, ive always just tried out different x y z values to get to where i wanted, and then set the zoom, and sometimes it can take many tries with trial and error lol

cookied for sheer Irony, Lurok (you got yours, Jimmy).  we were just going over this because of the TMP styled bridges tendancy to stay focused on Felix's back.
