Chase cam

[dmay 0]

Okay, I've got a unit called man2 and a vehicle called car2, a trigger set to true and the activation is man2 moveindriver car2

In the units INIT field I have:

[car2, man2, [0,-1,-0.6], true exec "carcam.sqs"

I have a script called carcam.sqs that contains:

</span><table border="0" align="center" width="95%" cellpadding="3" cellspacing="1"><tr><td>Code Sample </td></tr><tr><td id="CODE">

_unit = _this select 0

_target = _this select 1

_camoffsetX = (_this select 2) select 0

_camoffsetY = (_this select 2) select 1

_camoffsetZ = (_this select 2) select 2

_camrelative = _this select 3

vehiclecamstop = false

_cam = "camera" camcreate [0,0,0]

_cam cameraeffect ["internal", "back"]

#loop

_newpos = getpos _unit

? NOT(_camrelative) : _cam camsetpos [(_newpos select 0) + _camoffsetX, (_newpos select 1) + _camoffsetY, (_newpos select 2) + _camoffsetZ]; goto "commit"

_cam camsettarget _unit

_cam camsetrelpos [_camoffsetX,_camoffsetY,_camoffsetZ]

#commit

_cam camcommit 0

_cam camsettarget _target

_cam camcommit 0

~0.01

? NOT(vehiclecamstop) : goto "loop"

_cam cameraeffect ["terminate", "back"]

camdestroy _cam

exit

<span id='postcolor'>

When the mission begins the camera is on the back seat watching the driver (GOOD) but then the camera flips round to face the opposit way (BAD)

what do I need to change in my script so the camera always watches the driver from the rear and not turn away everytime? (turns away as car starts to move, following a waypoint)?

Well, no one interested in my problem then?

Too late anyway I've sorted it out.

lol..i guess it's abit late for me to post reply, but i'd suggest something along the lines of 'camsetrelpos' and looping
