camera system

[raid1000]

i want to make a camera system liek camera near-mid-far type
i want so if u type lets say -cf (camera far) the camera will ya know... move up into teh sky and gives u a greather field of view.
and so that i can rotate or zoom in without teh camera jumping to its initial setings
how do i do that?

You would create a boolean named cf and when its true, then every 0.5 seconds, set the camera to your cf position, and if its false, just turn off that trigger.

yes but then i cant rotate the camera
i want so i can rotate the camera

Set camera to the angle you want and then lock it. I don't know if it'll reset when you rotate though.

I recomend This:

• Camera Distance Set
  • Events
  • Conditions
    • (Substring((Entered chat string), 1, 4)) Equal to -cd(
  • Actions
    • Set TempReal = (Real((Substring((Entered chat string), 5, 10))))
    • If (All Conditions are True) then do (Then Actions) else do (Else Actions)
      • If - Conditions
        • TempReal Greater than 5000.00
      • Then - Actions
        • Set TempReal = 5000.00
      • Else - Actions
    • Camera - Set (Triggering player)'s camera Distance to target to TempReal over 2.00 seconds

And the events are added like this:

• Initialization
  • Events
    • Map initialization
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Player Group - Pick every player in (All players) and do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • Trigger - Add to Camera Distance Set <gen> the event (Player - (Picked player) types a chat message containing -cd( as A substring)

The reason I add them in my init trigger is because I hate adding all those events one by one.
