works like a charm

• camera zoom
  • Events
    • Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing -zoom as A substring
    • Player - Player 2 (Blue) types a chat message containing -zoom as A substring
    • Player - Player 3 (Teal) types a chat message containing -zoom as A substring
    • Player - Player 4 (Purple) types a chat message containing -zoom as A substring
    • Player - Player 5 (Yellow) types a chat message containing -zoom as A substring
    • Player - Player 6 (Orange) types a chat message containing -zoom as A substring
    • Player - Player 7 (Green) types a chat message containing -zoom as A substring
    • Player - Player 8 (Pink) types a chat message containing -zoom as A substring
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Camera - Set (Triggering player)'s camera Distance to target to ((Real((Substring((Entered chat string), 7, 10)))) x 10.00) over 2.00 seconds

the x10 is because players will type somthing like -zoom 100-400 witch will zoom in the normal zoom is somthing like 1600

Ok tyvm for this, only took me like 10 min to read all this and figure out how to actually write it, whether or not I understand it is a different story, but it works lol.

But now I am having the issue where if I zoom out too far, I start gettin that black haze at around the 350-400 zoom mark, how do I rid that black fading and just keep it completely visable?

um add a if/then/else and use the condition

• (Integer((Entered chat string))) Greater than x(sorry i dunno what the range is for when it goes black

then do nothing
else setting the game cam to your range

you can also change the x10 to somthing els to fit your bidding but i suggest keeping the if/then/else

you need to set the farZ value of the camera object for each player to some incredibly high. 10000 is the maximum for it.

i dont know how it was in GUI, something like this:
"Camera - set FarZ for PLAYER to VALUE"
PLAYER is a player variable
VALUE is a real variable

the action itself is called "Camera - set camera field for player" i guess but as i said, i cant remember correctly. just search for something like this along the lines.

ok well I found this action, and I set it up, set the player variable, set real variable to 10000, over 1 second. but its still hazing around 400, i tried changing the over time variable, tried different numbers on the real Variable, nothing, identical blackness. Thoughts?

should work. could you upload the map for me to have a look? or post all of your triggers here which are relevant.

sorry took so long, gettin random internet huick ups constantly. Some triggers are messy but all there, there is another set of camera triggers in the Initial that i was just messing with and might not be fully as they were. just fyi.

thats just the normal standard fog. to disable it just add the following line to your init trigger:

• Enviroment - Set fog to style Linear, z-start 9999999.00, z-end 9999999.00, density 0.00 and color (100.00%, 100.00%, 100.00%)
