Hey guys! Is it possible to make the camera follow an object when it moves using the arrow keys (including tilt, pan, roll angles assigned to keys)? If so, how would I do it?
Thanks!

action object_with_camera() {
VECTOR o_speed;
while(1) {
my.pan += (key_a-key_d)*10*time_step;
o_speed.x = (key_w-key_s)*20*time_step;
o_speed.y = 0;
o_speed.z = -c_trace(my.x,vector(my.x,my.y,my.z-500),IGNORE_ME | IGNORE_PASSABLE);
c_move(me,o_speed,nullvector,GLIDE);
camera.x = my.x-300*cos(my.pan);
camera.y = my.y-300*sin(my.pan);
camera.z = my.z+150;
camera.pan = my.pan;
camera.tilt = -20;
wait(1);
}
}
Should work, untested.
EDIT: When reading your post a second time I'm not sure if I understood you correctly!?

BTW: Welcome to the gamestudio forums! Thanks! Basically, I need the camera to follow the object both when it moves and when it tilts/pans/rolls, kind of like in the wizard shooter in the tutorial (workshop24 I think) but not just the pan angle. Seems a bit confusing, eh? Thanks again!
