[Trigger] Cam Lock.

[Mallaboro]

• Red Hero Camera
  • Events
    • Time - Every 0.10 seconds of game time
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Camera - Lock camera target for Player 1 (Red) to Players_Hero[1], offset by (0.00, 0.00) using The unit's rotation

I'm pretty clueless. Anyone recommend me a good camera system? (Preferably one that follows a camera around, that follows a unit around. Kinda hoping to put in keyboard events (down/up arrows) making it zoom in and out.

An angry shove in the right direction would be appreciated.

Ok, first, you don't need a constant event to lock the camera on your unit. You need to lock it once. The contant timer will come when for example you have a 3rd person camera and you want your camera to follow the facing of your unit.
Why don't you try some GUI camera systems from the Spells section?

Just looked. Nothing seems to suit my purpose. I need it to be individually for each player so when a cutscene is activated, you get the scene instead of it automatically going back to the hero cam.
I checked out The_Flood's cam which was damn impressive, but I wasn't able to stop it from ruining my cutscenes. If it were for one individual player per trigger (it's only 1 trigger would need to be manipulated) then I could disable the trigger, but I don't want to disable it for all players while one player watches a cutscene, because during that cutscene, everyones going to be wondering what on earths going on with their camera, and why they can see full map.

[edit] I've sent Flood a private message asking him if he'll apply the changes for me.

Well, add all the players in a player group and pick them in the constant event. When you want this "cutscene", remove the player from that group. That easy.
