Option to flip or rotate camera view?

I was scanning through the automatons update blog post and was totally not salivating over that fancy new top mounted camera, and it made me realize, what if you mount it on the bottom? When you view that camera from the cockpit or through remote control blocks, the view would be upside down relative to the rest of the ship.


My thought was, could you guys add a setting, perhaps a dropdown box in the control panel with options to rotate the view from the camera block by 90, 180, and 270 degrees? Or if you wanna go hard, a user definable rotation degree? As this would be *extremely* simple to implement (at least as far as I'm aware as a fellow programmer, I don't know your engine's specifics) and would likely only require a couple ifs and assignments run once each time the camera's viewed, it shouldn't cause any noticeable performance loss, though I'd totally understand if it isn't exactly any kind of priority.

This would be fantastic and I would love to see that sort of idea with the searchlight as well. It's very disorienting to switch to the view of the searchlight and this new top mounted camera if they are placed upside down or sideways
