frankie April 05, 2010, at 12:14 PM: With the new dynamic camera tracking capability, I was able to add this in via a tcl menu in the viewport. Now, when you right click in a viewport, it will have a "Set Camera Tracking" menu. In there will be a list of nodes the user can customize. When assigned, the current camera for that viewport will lock onto the target rotationally, and then translation keys will effectively let the user fly around the assigned node. Assigning "None" will disable the lock. The node list can be specified by overriding the "CAMERA_TRACK_MENU_NODES" definition in your DEFINES block of the user.cfg.
