[JASS] Actual Player Camera Bounds

[Emm-A-]

Hey Guys,

I need your help. I already used the Search tool, but i didnt find anything helpfull.

I want to find out the actual current camera bounds of a player in multiplayer.
I know, there could be a workaround with a fixed cam, adjusted to a unit, but
is there any other way, if camera isnt fixed?

I really hope, you guys could help me out.

I found something in common.j:

constant native GetCameraBoundMinX          takes nothing returns real

constant native GetCameraBoundMinY          takes nothing returns real

constant native GetCameraBoundMaxX          takes nothing returns real

constant native GetCameraBoundMaxY          takes nothing returns real

EDIT: You're a girl?

There are not many girls, that play wc3, and im not a girl

I know these functions, but i thought, they would return some kind of preset or the maximal coordinates of the camera bounds.

I didnt test this though in multiplayer, maybe with GetLocalPlayer() it would return the right thing...
(cant test in mp though at the moment :/)

Yeah, you're right, they don't take anything so they can't really know the bounds of a certain camera. I'll try to find something else later.

thanks for the effort, if someone other or maybe you got an idea for a work around with an unfixed cam it would be really great, if you would post it

And ill hope, you will find something ^^

Please, if you have an idea, give a tip.
