Just like the title says. If you're using your jumpjets, then say, you release the jj button, you can still turn your mech midflight. (im not talking about torso twisting, im talking about turning the mech)

As far as i know, thats physically impossible. Please make it so you can only turn your mech midflight if you're also expending thrust (i.e. holding the jj button) or at least give me a lore-backed explanation of how this is possible. Perhaps there's "secondary twist" jj we don't know about?

Anyways, apologies if this has been brought up before, but i couldn't find anything. Thanks!

Sure, acrobats can twist their bodies in the air so why not mechs also? Kidding.

Note that when you burn long enough to run out of jump jet juice, you can't turn at all.

It's likely assumed that as long as you have juice, your 'Mech can maneuver while flying. It might have been easier to program that way, but I can't say for sure.
