Aeronautics Camera Sync Mod FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
How do I turn on camera tilting?
Camera tilting activates automatically when you stand on a moving airship or flying contraption—no setup needed. If tilting isn't working, check that you're actually on a vessel that's pitching, rolling, or turning, and verify the mod is enabled in your mods folder.
Why does my camera stay flat when I'm on a moving ship?
The mod only tilts your camera when the vessel is actively moving or rotating. If the ship is stationary or moving in a straight line without banking or climbing, your camera won't tilt. Also confirm the mod loaded correctly by checking for the hotkey in your controls.
How do I pause camera tilting without leaving the ship?
Press the in-game hotkey (configurable in your controls menu) to toggle tilting on and off instantly. This lets you stabilize your view mid-flight without dismounting.
Why do my thrown items go in the wrong direction?
Make sure you're aiming with your crosshair while tilted—the mod corrects throw direction to match your camera angle. If throws still feel off, check that you're not holding a blacklisted item, which temporarily disables tilting.
How do I stop the camera from tilting when I hold certain items?
Open the mod's configuration file and add item names to the blacklist. Any blacklisted item will automatically disable camera tilting while you hold it, letting you throw or place blocks straight.
Does this mod work on multiplayer servers?
Yes, the mod works on servers, but tilting only affects your own camera—other players won't see your view rotate. On client-only servers or single-player, the mod includes a safety feature that disables tilt temporarily when you hold throwables or buckets so items don't launch at odd angles.
Can I attack and mine while my camera is tilted?
Yes, your reach distance and attack direction align with your tilted camera, so you can mine and fight naturally while standing on a moving vessel. Your crosshair always points where you're actually looking.
Does this mod cause lag or performance issues?
The mod is lightweight and only rotates your camera view—it doesn't add blocks, entities, or complex calculations. Performance impact is minimal on most systems.
What happens if I'm on a ship that's pitching and rolling at the same time?
The mod matches all three rotation axes (pitch, roll, and yaw), so your camera tilts correctly even during complex maneuvers. Your view stays aligned with the deck no matter how the vessel moves.
Can I use this mod with other camera mods?
Compatibility depends on how the other mod modifies camera behavior—some work fine together, while others may conflict. If you experience camera jittering or unexpected behavior, try disabling other camera mods to isolate the issue.
