Seems to me the effect you are looking for isn't so much having the
"mouse offset" represent the "radian that "head" need to rotate", but
rather have the offset proportional to the rate of change of the
"head" turn.
By making the offset porportional to the rate of turn rather than the
absolute magnitude having the mouse cursor centered would keep the
viewing angle steady (no turn). Having it mouse at the left window
edge would have the view turning to the left at a maximum allowable
rate. Having the mouse partially to the left of center would turn the
"head" left at a slower rate. That would allow continuous rotation to
the left(right) whenever the mouse is to the left(right) of center.
I haven't played any first person angle games in quite a while, but
that is how I remember them working.
Being able to re-center the mouse, as Mike's pro above does would
still be useful to quickly stop any rotation.
Bob.
