[General] Is it possible to lock camera within a certain area?

Hi guys, is it possible to lock camera within a certain area for one player? Like a square area?
Thanks.

For completely locking camera you could lock it on an invisible dummy.

If you want that a certain rectangle remains, use

• Camera - Shrink the camera bounds for Player 1 (Red) west by x, east by x, north by x, and south by x

or use the direct JASS version in connection with a GetLocalPlayer() block:

SetCameraBounds(minX, minY, minX, maxY, maxX, maxY, maxX, minY)

or use the direct JASS version in connection with a GetLocalPlayer() block:

SetCameraBounds(minX, minY, minX, maxY, maxX, maxY, maxX, minY)

How to use GetLocalPlayer() correctly with that Jass function? I'm afraid of the de-sync problem. Thanks.

Just wrap that one function in a GetLocalPlayer() block, nothing else, then you are save.

Yep. Just create a camera, rotate it to your desire and save it.

Then in triggers make a trigger that will call upon that camera for X player every X seconds

Thnx, guys.
