Stop moving darn camera

[war-lord]

So im trying to make a 2d game. I got the camera angel and everything down and in game it's fine AT FIRST. Then when i scroll on my mouse it just goes back to normal game camera. Anyone have an idea how to fix this? thanks

add a periodic trigger that apply your camera.

something like this :

• Camera settlement
  • Events
    • Time - Every 0.03 seconds of game time
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Camera - Apply your camera

thats this WOULD be fine EXCEPT that now i cant move my camera left to right which ruins the whole game. Any other options?

Instead of applying the camera, just lock the values you want to lock. In this case, it would be angle of attack for the camera.

So create the periodic trigger as TwoVenomous showed except put "Camera - Set Camera Field (Timed)" instead. (set the angle of attack to your value over 0 seconds)

I don't remember if the scrolling changes distance. If it does, then lock that too. Lock whatever it changes (except for the x/y position) and then you can still move the camera regularly.

could i please get a more detailed answer purgeandfire111? Like showing the triggers and knowing exactly what to lock

• Camera settlement
• Events
• Time - Every 0.03 seconds of game time
• Conditions
• Actions
• Camera - Set Angle of Attack to [your value] over 0 seconds
• Camera - Set Distance to [your value] over 0 seconds

You could learn more about Angle of Attack and Distance by experimenting on cameras.
As PurgeandFire111 said, the action is Camera- Set Camera Field.

thank you both very much
edit: it's still NOT working..... it still makes it so when i use the mouse scroller it changers camera view to normal view
edit 2: NVM it works i forgot to change the time to perodic event. But now when i scroll the wheel on the mouse it makes it so the camera view is below ground level

there must be something wrong with your AoA (Angle of Attack) values...

on PurgeandFire111's signature, there's a link called cameras, you should read these tutorial if you haven't...
