Smoother rotation when following a joystick axis
It took me a long time, but I finally got the camera inside of a cockpit to rotate independently of the ship. (The answer was so friggin simple, I just didn't know to use localRotation instead of rotation) but now the problem is that the camera follows the stick so exactly that it can be disorienting. Is there an effective way to smooth out the motion so that the camera rotates with a slight delay?
I'm guessing it has something to do with clamping rotation values then having the stick apply a rotate value which can then be smoothed instead of having its localRotation match the stick's axis, but I have no idea where to start with that theory. And importantly, the camera needs to automatically re-center itself when the stick axis returns to 0.
