So im making a flight simulator map and I ran into a problem. To move your plane is moved instinly to a point offset by your current speed. My problem is that I can't find a good way for the camera to follow the unit. I can't use camera objects because it becomes sloppy. And i cant use follow unit group because the camera falls behind, idk why.
Any ideas?
Thanks

1. Did you turn blend on? This might smooth the movement out a little bit.

2. Another thing that you could do is to issue order the unit to move instead of instantly moving it with a trigger.

3. There are ways that you can smooth out the movement of the camera in the data editor.

4. You could create an invisible unit which is issued order to move to the position of the airplane every 1 second. Make the camera follow this unit instead.

Are you sure that there isn't any way to modify the unit follow speed in the data editor Cameras?
