Title: Camera Lock
Post by: snafu on 28 Feb 2009, 22:28:50

Hi all

Trying to do a simple intro where the camera follows a UAZ to its destination. Using Messiah's tutorial, it says that if you press spacebar it will lock on to the unit you are pointing it to. But every time I press spacebar the mission ends and brings me back to the editor.

What's wrong?

  From what I understand this feature was eliminated a while back.  I've not been able to use it for years. 

  Does anyone know a workaround?

I know that "locking" targets with the camera.sqs script works, you only have to aim around a bit near your actual target that it will snap onto it. Enabling the crosshair helps with that (the controls are listed in the according Biki article (http://community.bistudio.com/wiki/camera.sqs#Controls)).
