This camera is really good. It doesn't rest against a landscape and quite comfortable in game. However there is a little problem. It works incorrectly after unit goes down from the cliff or in the pits. If he gets on top - camera works perfectly. Can someone fix this nasty bug? But please without Jass. Using custom scripts or standart triggers if it possible.

Go to your Trigger List and click at the top of the list on the Map Symbol where you also find the title of your map, then copy this code into the trigger sheet on the right side (use at least nextgenpack 5d):

function SetCameraZ takes player whichPlayer, real z returns nothing
if ( GetLocalPlayer() == whichPlayer ) then
set z = GetCameraField(CAMERA_FIELD_ZOFFSET)+z-GetCameraTargetPositionZ()
call SetCameraField(CAMERA_FIELD_ZOFFSET,z,- 0.01)
call SetCameraField(CAMERA_FIELD_ZOFFSET,z,0.01)
endif
endfunction

After that you should be able to custom script trigger the function

Custom script: call SetCameraZ(udg_TempPlayer, udg_TempReal)

(TempPlayer and TempReal are variables, dont forget to write "udg_" before refering to them)

TempPlayer refers to the player whose camera gets manipulated and TempReal is the height the camera should exactly go to.

^Once upon a time on Weekend Mapping Madness #3 I used that and my camera flyed up to the town I was.

I understead thi first part and made it. But dont uderstead what do here: "After that you should be able to custom script trigger the function

Custom script: call SetCameraZ(udg_TempPlayer, udg_TempReal)

Because of my bad English( Can you please send screen how does it look?

When you set height of your camera then use this Custom Script function.

• Custom script: call SetCameraZ(udg_TempPlayer, udg_TempReal)

(TempPlayer = variable for the player)

For example: Set TempPlayer = Player 1

TempReal = Height of the Camera

For example: 300 or maybe you have a function to get the Z of the unit you are attaching the camera to.
