Flipcam with lua/SOC?

[metalharbor]

I'm making a level with reverse gravity...is there any way to flip the camera with lua or a SOC?

The wiki suggests that PF_FLIPCAM can be used, but I am not sure how to use it

I know that this can be done by the player through the console/options but I'd rather have it on by default

Nope, you need to do it correctly!

Spoiler: How?

To enable: player.pflags = $1|PF_FLIPCAM
To disable: player.pflags = $1 & ~PF_FLIPCAM
To check: if (player.pflags & PF_FLIPCAM)

I'm pretty basic with lua...I haven't really gotten beyond modifying other people's scripts. To enable this I assume it would be something like

addHook("ThinkFrame", do player.pflags = $1|PF_FLIPCAM end

but that doesn't seem to do anything.

try this :

local function FlipCam(player)
  -- Check if the player is in first-person mode
  if player.camera.style == 1 then
    -- Flip the camera horizontally
    player.camera.angle = player.camera.angle + Angle(0, 180, 0)
  end
end

-- Hook the FlipCam function to the appropriate event
addHook("ThinkFrame", function()
  for player in players.iterate do
    FlipCam(player)
  end
end)

Does that need to be called by a linedef? Just including it in the pk3 lua folder doesn't seem to do anything.

Edit: to be clear, the camera flip setting is off by default, and I'm hoping for it to go on.
