2 camera questions

[CrashyMcCrashFace]

1. How do you place the camera in a stationary position to get fly-byes?

2. Can you record a flight path? Not so much filming a video but record the flight path and then play back the flight itself. Then position the camera in clever places. I'm not sure how you could do both at the same time. Some other flight sims can do this.

I am not aware of any way to do what you want to do in an unmodded game but there are two mods that might be able to do it. Kerbcam and Camera tools should be able to accomplish this but they are both very out of date at the moment. I am still recommending them because it is possible that there is a patch for them somewhere, otherwise no, you cannot do that with the camera.

There's no way to do it in the stock game.  In general, you'd need a mod for this, as @TachyonGMZ suggests.

Nope.  The stock game doesn't do this.  For all I know there may be a mod somewhere for it, but I have no idea what the mod might be-- you could go ask in Add-on Discussions about it, I suppose.

You’d need Camera Tools to get the flypast camera. As for the replay, no idea.
