moving portal_cameras

(isbowhten) #1

i cant make the camneras follow other entities.
i tried attachtotag and gotomarker,

it always is on the same position, it does not move.
so is it IM-possible that cameras move?

As far as I know, a camera cannot move, but it can focus on objects. Like the tank in goldrush, when it moves and you look at it in the limbo menu, you can see that the camera pans.

The tank is attached by a an limbo camera but not a portal camera. I guess it’s not possible. Sorry. But, maybe somebody else haves an idea?

there is something that is hidden…
and you shall be only abel to see it if you build something… so if portal cameras would not work for that (that hidden object acn move) i am open for other ideas… but not limbo cameras :stuck_out_tongue:
ofc i could crowd my map with limbo cameras but not many people seem to watch at the limbo cameras.

stupid idea but…
you could make a lot (a lot!) of camera entities, and it would look like it’s following it…

You can make a screen visible when it must be. but i don’t think you can follow an object with the camera.

hm … the camera is supposed to help you finding the hidden stuff … as this hidden stuff can be moved… how else can i help teams to find the stuff (i already added a sound so you can at least heat in whihc building it is hidden)

let the camera be outside the building. So you can see the building and know that there is something in it;)

hm there are more than one building…would be much scripting…
anyway that is by now the best idea ^^

i also thought about command map icons but i dont think it’s good.
