Camera to focus on object [SOLVED]
« on: July 03, 2020, 02:05:13 AM »
I'm using Lean Touch for pinching and dragging. HOG for mobile.

I have a hint button to highlight an object when the player is stuck.

My problem is, when the player is zoomed in or a different area is visible, how do I get the camera to focus on the hinted object if the hinted object is out of view?

Thank you for any help!

Save hinted object in a variable.
Use "Smooth follow action" on camera and set hinted object as target

Hi,

 I use Cinemachine a lot and it has all the feature to create complex camera movement, with rules such as what you are looking for, aiming on target objects, etc etc.

I would give it a go, it's very powerful indeed.

Bye,

 Jean
