It looks you'll need a periodic trigger that sets your selected units either to a unit or unit group variable. Then you tell the trigger to set the camera to your selected units and clear the variables. At least that's what I think. I've never tried that yet so there might be better ways to do it.

Use the event player selects unit.
For actions do lock camer to selected unit.
If u select multiple units this will lock it to one of the units but it should be ok.

What bout this ?:

• Camera Copy
  • Events
    • Time - Every 0.03 seconds of game time
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • -------- Makes the trigger run for each player set to play: --------
    • Set _Camera_Integer = 1
    • For each (Integer integer) from 1 to _AmountPlayers_2D, do (Actions)
      • Loop - Actions
        • -------- (Not gravity, sets camera:) --------
        • Set temppoint[_Camera_Integer] = (Position of hero[_Camera_Integer])
        • Camera - Pan camera for (Player(_Camera_Integer)) to temppoint[_Camera_Integer] over 0.15 seconds
        • Camera - Lock camera target for (Player(_Camera_Integer)) to hero[_Camera_Integer], offset by (0.00, 0.00) using Default rotation
        • Camera - Set (Player(_Camera_Integer))'s camera Angle of attack to 200.00 over 0.00 seconds
      • Set _Camera_Integer = ( _Camera_Integer + 1 )
      • Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_temppoint[udg__Camera_Integer])

It's MPI

but after how I disable that locked camera? for example I put Up Arrow Key to disable

 

[deathismyfriend]

U don't need to pan camera so u can get rid of that. Also since u lock the camera u should not use event .03

To stop the camera lock u will need a second trigger and just set a condition in that trigger for that player. So a condition array keyed to the players number. Then u rested the game camera. In the trigger that jonhysome posted change the few things I said then use a condition check if the condition for that player is false then the trigger won't fire.

Use camera system in spell section

 

[deathismyfriend]

remove these.

• Set temppoint[_Camera_Integer] = (Position of hero[_Camera_Integer])
• Camera - Pan camera for (Player(_Camera_Integer)) to temppoint[_Camera_Integer] over 0.15 seconds

and these

• Camera - Set (Player(_Camera_Integer))'s camera Angle of attack to 200.00 over 0.00 seconds
• Set _Camera_Integer = ( _Camera_Integer + 1 )
• Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_temppoint[udg__Camera_Integer])

unless he wants the camera angle.

change this to unit select event.

• Time - Every 0.03 seconds of game time

take out ITE and move this to top condition.

• camera_lock[_Camera_Integer] Equal to True

change _Camera_Integer to player number of triggering player

 

[defskull]

Also, don't forget to reset all properties of camera to default when he hits the off button (in this case, it's in the Stop camera lock trigger).

For instance, Unlock the camera, instead of just letting it locked to the unit.

• Camera - Reset camera for Player 1 (Red) to standard game-view over 0.00 seconds
