View Distance

[Czarofthewest]

Believe me, I have googled this and looked through over 20 pages to no avail.

I'm simply looking for a trigger that when somebody types -View X (X being the distance) it will change view distance of the triggering player (Red, blue, teal etc, but only to that one person. Not like if red typed -view 2000 it changes EVERYONEs to 2000, just red.)

If possible GUI, Thanks

easily done. What Pharaoh did

I tested your map and it worked great. However when created it in my map it won't work. Is there a option that i need to check to allow a player to change their camera distance?

Did you create the "Distance" variable? It should work in any case, it considers all of the 12 possible players.

 

[Czarofthewest]

Yes, I went as far as to change the name of the variable simply to "Distance." It's also a "Real" type variable as well.

I've looked over my triggers atleast 50 times and they're identical to the ones you made, so I'm pretty lost. I dont know if I'm simply retarded lol, my computer is having some kind of breakdown, or what; but if there is some kind of restriction to moving your camera beyond the standard outlook that is the only thing I can think of atm...

Heck, I'll mess around with it later, and if it still doesnt work I'll remake it. Still? Then who knows

go to File --> preferences --> General and you should beable to find some wording saying [Automatically create unknown variables while pasting trigger data], tick that box then copy and paste the triggers again(obviously delete the the first paste) and it should work. Havn't tested it though
