    So I set up a cool angle to film a train entering a tunnel. But when the train enters the tunnel, the camera just automatically jumps to first person. This is so stupid. It is even more stupid when you have been exploring for a few minutes very far from your train and the camera just resets to first person mode whenever you enter a tunnel. This is something that needs to be changed!!!!!!!!!

    It is being changed. It was supposed to be changed with the Clinchfield DLC release but there were problems with it on other routes so it will come later now.

    Apparently it has been fixed for Cane Creek.

    Yeah Cane Creek it's working. Clinchfield is the one where it is really needed. The trains are so long and so many tunnels you are forever snapping back to drivers view

    Kind of.
    If you press the '8' key while in the tunnel, you get funky graphics.

    I think the only route where I can really see this being disabled is BKL

    I created a poll on this in April, which includes an update / response from Natalie. I'm not aware of any further news / updates on this since then

    DTG, could you help manage expectations on this please - Will the external camera in tunnel functionality be part of the Rush Hour code push? Or is it further down the line? Thank you
