How do you pan a camera to where it originally was

Let's say a cinematic plays during gameplay. How do you make it so the camera pans back to where it originally was before the cinematic?

I guess you save the location where the camera points before moving it and once you're done with cinematic, you pan the camera back to the saved location.

• Set p = (Target of current camera view)

Note that the variable p is a "Point"

 

[Nichilus]

You create point variable using variable editor (you access it by clicking the golden "X" button in the trigger editor window).

• Set loc = (Target of current camera view)
• ... cinematic actions here...
• ... once cinematic ends...
• Camera - Pan camera for Player 1 (Red) to loc over 2.00 seconds
• Custom script: call RemoveLocation(udg_loc)

Basically like this. I named the point variable "loc".
Note how I destroyed the location using the custom script. It's important (most of the time) to destroy saved locations, else they pile up and eventually slow down your game (or freeze it)
