Camera bug?

[solved]Camera bug?

Hello all. I'm making a huge RPG map. There's this bug that started happening recently. Basically I have a bunch of cameras for each dialogue. Each dialogue is a small cinematic. Before when I wanted to switch cameras from to another, it worked. But now when I want to switch a camera instead of the camera switching it just switches to the same camera that's on and just kinda jumps and makes it further(?). Plzz help BTW I have more that 30 cams
Edit:Found out the problem. Plzz close thread

Please post the code.

what code??? I'm sorry. I'm kindof a noob in this

Trigger name -> Right Click -> Copy as text.

Then put it in [Hidden=Click][trigger][/trigger][/Hidden] tags.

Actually I have more that 20 dialogue triggers. Do you want them all?
BTW. I have 30+ cams

Just one or two of each kind so we could see how you do it.

(Fisherman is my hero,

SelectHero is a trigger which selects the hero)

Is there only one Fisherman hero in the game at all times? Why not use Unit/Unit-Type Comparison? (The former choice if the unit is placed in the Terrain Editor)

Also replace Entering Unit with Triggering Unit.

Yes, I have only one hero and he's spawned when the game starts so I can't have unit/unit comparison. Anyway for some reason the cameras don't switch over. Instead the camera just jumps

You can use Unit Type comparison, more safe. And how exactly does it jump? You mean instantly, and you want it over time?

Well basically. I switch to the camera which points to the talking unit. Then when my hero starts talking I want to switch to the camera which is pointing his way(instantly). But for some reason it stays on the camera which is looking at the talking unit and kindof jumps up a bit then slowly goes back down and moves away a bit. I can make a video if needed.
BTW I did unit/unit type comparison as you said

It's Ok guys. I found out the problem

I think it would be nice if you posted the fix, in case someone has a problem with this later.

I can't. You see, I had another trigger which would interfere with the camera (it set the current camera pos to a 3rd person view)
