FS#7507 - When mounting again after unmounting character is sitting on mount about 90 degrees rotated
Every time I unmount and mount again it adds another about 90 degrees so that after four times the char sits on the mount in almost correct orientation again.
Tested on Rivnak and Drifter.
However after dismissing a pet and summoning it again once after logging in, the sitting position keeps locked. But only if the character mounted it once before dismissing the pet for the first time.
So or so there is something off with the sitting position of the char on a mount after the first unmount and mount again cycle.
# Expected result
Character always sits on the mount in correct orientation.
persists in 0.7.27. It seems fine if you mount/unmount with E but if you accidentally select your mount and unmount with a right click while trying to adjust the camera, you dismount and the character orientation gets messed up.
still persisting on 0.7.28. first mount is fine, it may stay ok a few times but then it twists you round in almost any facing direction then the way the mount is facing and thus travelling. this is on mac
I can still trigger this with PSUnreal 0.7.29. It took me a few attempts of mounting and unmounting, but then Damola was sitting in the wrong direction. After unmounting she was still oriented in the wrong direction, so when running forward, she appeared running sideways character animation wise while still running forward.
It worked ok for me fine, UNTIL I dismissed my mount, then summoned it again. Now I am sitting in strange angles every time I mount again.
I also just noticed that after these mount / dismount / mount actions my character is no longer running straight. (Of course he is NOT drunk…)
This seems to be the same problem of direction.
I can consistently trigger this behavior with the following:
1) summon mount, 2) mount, 3) unmount 4) click into another chat tab than the one currently displayed 5) mount (player should have ~45 degree turn counter clockwise relative to the mount)
also seems to happen if you open other gui windows, i just opened the skills window instead of changing chat tabs, and had the same result
I can also reproduce consistently by right clicking to dismount without interacting with the GUI.
However, if you move your character around between unmounting and remounting (can use E or right click), you don't seem to get the rotation no matter what you interact with? Seems to only be an issue if you dismount and remount without moving in between. Seems like the player rotation isn't updating correctly on dismount, but moving around "resets" the player rotation correctly.
