• Untitled Trigger 010
  • Events
    • Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing -zoom as A substring
    • Player - Player 2 (Blue) types a chat message containing -zoom as A substring
    • Player - Player 3 (Teal) types a chat message containing -zoom as A substring
  • Conditions
    • (Substring((Entered chat string), 1, 5)) Equal to -zoom
  • Actions
    • Set r1 = (Real((Substring((Entered chat string), 7, (Length of (Entered chat string))))))
    • Camera - Set (Triggering player)'s camera Distance to target to r1 over 2.00 seconds

"camera distance to target" is the main key (function/action) to this problem.

In other words, "zoom in" or "zoom out".

For rotating cameras, you'd need another function (exist in a same action)

i suggest u also set a min and max range as when u zoom out to far the screen will turn black
