[Trigger] camera question

[Just_Spectating]

how do i lock the camera in place where ever the camera is currently at?

 

[apocalypse_dude]

use cinematic mode if u want it to be locked so user cant control

If u just want to lock the screen but the player should still be able to control units then use the world editors camera tools (in the same window as units, terrain and stuff) create camera that shows the region you want do be shown in game and then use Camera - Apply Camera
to apply the camera you just created

i did the appy camera, but you can still scroll around. and i just need it locked but have player controll

 

[apocalypse_dude]

Camera - Lock camera target for 'Player' to 'Unit', offset by (0.00, 0.00) using standard rotation

Where 'unit' might be an invisible dummy unit in center of your visible region

 

[Just_Spectating]

i do that but the camera is in an angle and when you lock to a unit it goes to game camera vision

Make it lock and then apply the angle over 0 seconds

 

[Just_Spectating]

its at a custom camera angle that i made.. and you cant edit all the values that the camera supplies

Ok here is how i did it:

• Cam init
• Events
  • Time - Elapsed Game time is 1 second
• Conditions
• Actions
  • Camera - Apply view <gen> for Player 1 (red) over 0.01 seconds
  • Camera - Lock camera target for Player 1 (red) to burning sheep of death 0012 <gen>, offset by (0.00, 0.00) using Standard-Rotation

And then a refresh trigger

• cam
  • Events
    • Time - Every 1.00 seconds of game time
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Playergroup - Pick every player in (All players matching ((((Matching player) slot status) equal (==) plays) and (((Matching player) controller) equals (==) User))) and do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • Camera - Apply view <gen> for (Picked player) over 0.01 seconds

burning sheep of death is the unit which is in center of my very tiny map
view <gen> is the camera object
I have differen angle, distance and rotation with this
should work for you, too

 

[Just_Spectating]

it wont work for what im trying to do w/e..

 

[graystuff111]

• Camara
• Events
  • Time - Every 0.02 seconds of game time
• Conditions
• Actions
  • Player Group - Pick every player in (All players) and do (Actions)
    • Loop - Actions
      • Camera - Apply Camera 001 <gen> for (Picked Player) over 0.00 seconds

Thats how I did it.

 

[Just_Spectating]

yeah, i didnt really want to do that, but if thats like the only way, then i guess ill do it..

 

[apocalypse_dude]

If u do it this way and this frequent u have to remove leaks
just in case u dont know

 

[Just_Spectating]

i dont have to remove leaks, cause im not using that trigger. i have no leaks in what im using cause i dont pick every player
