Dawg,
If you want to steer with the external controls while going “backwardsâ€â€”red funnel on port side, you can still do it rather easily by adapting the short discussion in the Mission Editor Tutorial:
The left pair of wheels is now the stern VSP; the right pair, the bow. The thrust indicators should point down—6 o’clock—to go ahead.
Steering is intuitive if you use the left wheel—turning the wheel left turns the ship to port, because the stern is pushed to starboard. The right wheel is like a bow thruster, but she turns in the opposite direction to the wheel.
You’ve probably figured all this out already, and I got a bad headache for nothing.
Regards,
Marty
