Camera trigger issue

[Avator]

I've made a few very simple camera triggers, and everything now works except for 1 small problem when I try to rotate the camera to a certain rotation angle. When the camera rotation angle gets between 90 and 270 degrees, the camera begins to shake rapidly while rotating. Even stranger is that this only happens to rotating the camera sideways. When changing the angle of attack the the same triggers, there are no problems at all. These are my triggers:

I've attached the map so everybody knows what exactly the problems are. You can type in CALL ROTATION (with or without capital letters) to check the rotation angle.

I'm not sure, but I think that 0% deceleration is causing the problem. Cause that was my case when I tried tweaking the camera stuff.

 

[Avator]

I just tested with 10% and it gives the same issue. No change

 

[elfian]

Found it. Change 100% to Preset - Existing Velocity. Also reverse it It's going in the opposite directions. :]

 

[Avator]

You're right. Very strange, because when Existing Velocity was turned on before it didn't made the camera move at all :S

Anyway, thanks for solving the problem and the tip on the directions (I was so busy trying to solve the problem that I didn't even notice they were turned around xD)

You've deserved your +rep
