Bonus #2: Flying Controls
If we make a space simulation, weâre going to want to fly through it, right? We can use the same controls that we used to fly through the planets in Chapter 5, âFunctions: Use and Use Againâ. Start by loading the fly controls code collection at the very top of our code:
| â | <body></body> |
| â | <script src=â"/three.js"â></script> |
| » | <script src=â"/controls/FlyControls.js"â></script> |
We will need yet another camera for this. Just below the moon-cam code, add a ship-cam:
| â | âvarâ shipCam = ânewâ THREE.PerspectiveCamera(75, aspectRatio, 1, 10000); |
| â | shipCam.position.âsetâ(0, 0, 500); |
| â | scene.add(shipCam); |
Add the fly controls code just below that. (See The Hitchhikerâs Guide to the Galaxy
