@ID_AA_Carmack if you haven't, experiment with quantized, high speed turns using bumpers. Entirely eliminated nausea for my testers.

@AndreTI Quantized snaps probably is the best default stick behavior, but I want to encourage users to rotate in reality when possible.

@ID_AA_Carmack How do I turn around without getting tangled?

@OniGumby no wires on GearVR

@ID_AA_Carmack @heybrucewright or design levels that don't require camera rotation (as seen in Super Mario 3D World... and Lucky's Tale!)

@paulbettner @ID_AA_Carmack @heybrucewright one of my prototypes successfully yaw rotates VR camera without nausea. (quick writeup incoming)

@ID_AA_Carmack That sounds rather impractical for people with mobility problems.

@ID_AA_Carmack How about advising devs to use head rotation for yaw, and stick control to extend range (or map directly for disabled users)?

@ID_AA_Carmack True. Do more direct approaches like the pads on the steam controller work better? Just 1 level of indirection instead of 2.

@ID_AA_Carmack Is there no room for both? Add option to remove gyro movement and have rotation solely bound to controller sticks.
