I saw Erik have cameras follow ships around on his play through but cannot seem to find where to do this?

There's a camera angles button on the bottom right. When you have a ship selected, the bridge and trailing camera views appear there as well.

L locks the selected unit in center view.

L locks the selected unit in center view.
It seems bugged as it just freezes and shutters back and forth?

If it looks jittery, that means the ship is moving. The camera doesn't quite update its position in sync with the ship.

Hi,
Don’t want to hijack the thread, but this seemed a good place to ask?
Are you able to rotate the camera up and down in the system view?
Thanks

Only the predefined camera angles are available, unfortunately. We can only hope this will change in the future.
