How can I have a camera that allows a specator to use their mouse to rotate the camera around the player they are spectating?

Thanks for he super-fast responses.. It was a quick fix to my problem!!
I was banging my head against the wall basically trying to write that Rotator() function lol

Then you can get a little fancy and define you class with the ‘within’ keyword. In the example: class MyPlayerInput extends PlayerInput within MyPlayerController;. This lets you have access to the class variables of MyPlayerController, but from within the MyPlayerInput class.

Take a look at http://www.moug-portfolio.info/index.php?page=input-commands for some more reference on player input. Good luck!

What I always did was Rotator(target.Location – self.Location). The Rotator’s constructor should handle the rest =). You don’t need to do a trace, since subtracting the two locations is same thing (unless you need the vector normalized).

To answer your first question you can check out AllActors(), and use your pawn class as the base class parameter.

I’ve been able to get the other pawn’s coordinates into my camera class, and I am able to correctly use Trace to get the normal(vector) between the two pawns, but I am having trouble rotating the camera to that vector.

Any ideas?

First of all, awesome work! Really great stuff! :)

Not sure if you’re still replying to this thread or not, but figured I’d give my question a shot. I was wondering if you had an idea as to how one can “toggle” a lock on action. I would prefer it if a player could toggle on a “lock” to an object/player by pressing a button once, and then toggle off the lock again byt pressing the same button. Is this even possible in UScript? I’ve asked Google but it seems that no one has accomplished this, or at least shared how to do so, haha.

Any input that you might have would be greatly appreciated. Thanks a lot and again, awesome work!
