Dissable Scroll Wheel Camera Cotnrol?

[Goober4473]

Simple question: Is there a way to stop the scroll wheel from changing the camera angle in a map? I have the camera snapped to a unit and the arrow-keys turn and zoom the camera, and the scroll wheel messes that up.

Set the camera angle of all the players to 304 every time.

Wouldn't the lock camera Trigger work?

I can't just set the camera angle constantly to fix it. The problem is that when it moves the camera down to change the perspective, it also resets the zoom and direction. So if I zoom out and spin the camera around to the other side of my character, hitting the scroll wheel even a little sets it back to the defaults, but doesn't reset the variables I use to keep track of the camera, so the next time I try to turn or zoom the camera, it snaps back to where I had it before and moves from there. This makes the camera pretty dizzying and weird.

I already use the lock camera command. That just makes sure the camera is always looking at my character, and won't move away. It doesn't stop changes to the rotation or zoom.

I'm still looking for an answer to this, if anyone an think of one.

well you can check the scroll etc periodically to detect whether mouse wheel has been scrolled or not. thence you can re-set all your camera data.

that would be the only solution i know.

I don't think it works that way.
I think you need to run a periodic trigger to do that.

locking locks the camera's X and Y not its rotation or angle of attack

at the moment i'm solving this problem (in gui script) with a periodic trigger that sets the appropriate camera and focus unit every 0.5 seconds of the game if conditions are true, so that if you try to zoom your screen just kinda shakes a bit until you stop playing with the mouse wheel.
