How can I lock a camera this way...?

[NarGalloth]

Hi.

My question this time is how to lock a particular camera. This camera will NOT be centered on a unit, so I can't use the "Lock Camera Target to Unit" function (or is there a way to do it...?).
I also need the player to be able to interact with the interface, so it can't be on Cinematic Mode.

I thinked about creating a trigger that every 0.05 - 0.1 seconds sets the camera to the right position, but I don't like this idea, because it will probably be a huge load on the memory.

Do you know another way to do this? Thanks for reading.

Wait, "camera this way" ?
Where are you referring to ?
There's no image or whatever....

Here's where I explain how do I want the camera.
Sorry, I know I didn't explain myself very wisely...

In other words, I want to lock a camera without using cinematic modes, or things like that. The player must be able to interact with the interface, but must NOT be able to move the camera itself in any direction.
What I'm asking is if there's a way to do it without using a 0.0x loop to periodically set the camera's fields (because I suppose that would be a huge load on the memory).

P.D.: Sorry if I sometimes write weird things. Maybe my english is not very good (I'm spanish).

• Camera - Lock camera target for Player 1 (Red) to (Triggering unit), offset by (0.00, 0.00) using Default rotation

Yes, that would be a posibility if the camera is centered on a unit... but it's not.
I have already said that in my first post. The camera is not centered on a unit, so I can't use that function. Am I wrong?

why not make an invisible unit and lock the camera on the invisible unit. hope that helped.
EDIT: make it have locust ability and no shadow/selection scale.

Well, that's something I didn't think about... Although it will be hard to find the exact position for that invisible unit. However, I could try it. Thanks for the idea. If I happen to make it work properly, I will post the result.

Still waiting for more posibilities.

You can try this.
It depends on your size of your region, make your choice.

Mmm... Nah, I think that I'm trying to do something that's actually harder to make than a loop over time. I suppose that I'll use a loop to set the camera periodically.
It'll probably be easier for me.

Anyway, thanks to all of you for your attention.
