A point in front of a unit?

[Ricardo Irving]

I am having trouble unravelling the mystery of how to make a first person camera for multiplayer without making the unit size go to 0%. So, I have a camera dummy and such, but even when I tried using - real values it still puts the dummy behind the unit, when moving it. Can anyone tell me how to do this without vJASS or excessive JASS?

• Trigger Camera
• Events
  • Time - Every 0.03 second of game-time
• Conditions
• Actions
  • For each (Integer A) from 1 to 12, do (Actions)
    • Loop - Actions
      • Set Point1 = (Position of (Your unit[Player Number of Player(IntegerA)])
      • Set Point2 = ((Point1) offset by 40.00 (?) towards ((Facing of (your unit[Player Number of Player(IntegerA)]))
      • Camera - Pan Camera for (Player(IntegerA)) at Point2
      • Custom script: call RemoveLocation (udg_Point1)
      • Custom script: call RemoveLocation (udg_Point2)

Testing - you will be granted many thanks and acclaim, if this works. But wait, I don't use it like that, take an example from Slaydon's "Movement and Camera" spell which includes TPC and FPC. However, the different way I did it, can easily have something like that. Testing, then + rep if works.

It will do the trick Worry not... Besides, you must have the unit selected stored in a Unit with array variable and all set

Does NOT WORK.
