Since the recent improvements to the camera drones and consequent redirection of stargate structures to point to the star to which they travel, I have noticed (even more) that the camera will reposition itself (facing 6 o'clock) every time you jump. This makes it very difficult to appreciate the movement of eve's stars and stellar nebulae when you jump, since your relative view perspective is constantly thrust back to 6 o'clock and you have to reorient yourself needlessly. If you could please save the relative camera position through a session change, I feel it would make a great improvement to the visual dynamic of jumping.

I was thinking about a "tracking" camera position. One that would be in the general area of where the bridge looking forward and would be and locked to the ship's orientation. We almost have that now .. until the ship turns ... your cameras is still pointed in the last direction it had been pointed.
