install: nothing need to be done - more like a double check ...


0. better start new game , i didn't had the chance to check it in existing saves
1. REQUIRES : go game setting and inside It - MENU - choose Side Console ON

2. optional : if any - disable any other mods that effect - the skunk cockpit or weapons locations only (other mods are fine)
, this mod is 98% cosmetic so it should not effect attributes like damage ,ratio , speed ,shield etc are fine .

3. optional :If you ever used other old cockpit mods that ask you to change fov - read this if not - ignore .
REQUIRES - check config.xml inside USER\Documents\Egosoft\
REMOVE any field of view setting inside config.xml - Open your config.xml file
You need to search line like this - <fov>1.2</fov> or <fov>1.3</fov> etc , remove them if its there
again ignore it if never edited it , if its still the original config.xml skip this .

this mod use independent Field of View settings (only default Cockpit for now) inside units_player_cockpit_1.xml (cam_cockpit parent to Connection040 anima_main)

inspired by mods like: Skunk Overhaul (i will fix this old gem)
and [WIP] Take Control
