Looks like a great game, but I could only go up and down and rotate left/right. WASD didn't seem to do anything. (Linux).
Oh I just found out so, sorry! I didn’t realize the WASD key didn’t do anything. But alternatively you can use the mouse to control the direction. I made it so similar to what Battlefield 3 & 4 does.
Helicopter flies very consistently and the HUD is extremely useful. Good job!
Thank you! Some HUD elements are inspired from Comanche 4
