I need to set zoom options, by Chat Message

[joaoac]

Hi everyone,

i need a trigger that does this:

- When any player types "zoom x" it changes the offset camera to that determinated position.

Actually I can make a trigger that grants the player to change its offset camera and then reset with another Trigger called "reset zoom", BUT

The questions are:

1- Do I have to copy/paste it for every player or is it possible to make some Player x where x is the triggering player?
2- What are the Actions and Conditions to set that when player types 500 it ll offsets 500, when typing 700 the same for 700 and on and on?

Actually i can only set fixed positions like

Player 1 (Red) types a message containing zoom 500 as An exact match.

The red ones are the things I want to make it variable for every player whitou having to copy/paste it 12 times and with a variation of offset camera from standard to 1000 heigth distance.

You do not have to make an event for every possible zoom value, but you will need to make a copy of the event for each player.

Simply use:
Player 1 (Red) types a message containing zoom as A substring.
Player 2 (Blue) types a message containing zoom as A substring.
as many times as you have players

For setting the distance you will need something like this:

Camera - Set (Triggering player)'s camera Distance to target to (Real((Substring((Entered chat string), 6, 10)))) over 0.00 seconds

Obviously the above action if for my example trigger. Where -cam 700 would set the range to 700 because the positions 6-10 are being used for the range. I do suggest putting some limitations in here, perhaps a condition checking if its in a decent range. You wouldn't want anything really under 500 or above 4000.


Below I have an example of setting the zoom via a "-cam XXX" command.

• Camera Range
  • Events
  • Player - Player 1 (Red) types a chat message containing -cam as A substring
  • Player - Player 2 (Blue) types a chat message containing -cam as A substring
  • Player - Player 3 (Teal) types a chat message containing -cam as A substring
  • Player - Player 4 (Purple) types a chat message containing -cam as A substring
  • Player - Player 5 (Yellow) types a chat message containing -cam as A substring
  • Player - Player 6 (Orange) types a chat message containing -cam as A substring
  • Player - Player 7 (Green) types a chat message containing -cam as A substring
  • Player - Player 8 (Pink) types a chat message containing -cam as A substring
  • Player - Player 9 (Gray) types a chat message containing -cam as A substring
  • Player - Player 10 (Light Blue) types a chat message containing -cam as A substring
  • Player - Player 11 (Dark Green) types a chat message containing -cam as A substring
  • Conditions
  • Actions
  • Camera - Set (Triggering player)'s camera Distance to target to (Real((Substring((Entered chat string), 6, 10)))) over 0.00 seconds
