Need help whit a 3rd person camera!

[Tholdalf]

I have used the search just so that you know.

Heres the code but the problem is that i cant make the camera to follow the units rotations

Player 2 camera
    Events
        Player - Player 2 (Blue) Selects a unit
    Conditions
        ((Triggering unit) is A Hero) Equal to True
        (Owner of (Triggering unit)) Equal to (Triggering player)
    Actions
        Camera - Lock camera target for Player 2 (Blue) to (Triggering unit), offset by (0.00, 0.00) using The unit's rotation
        Camera - Set Player 2 (Blue)'s camera Distance to target to 700.00 over 0.25 seconds
        Camera - Set Player 2 (Blue)'s camera Angle of attack to 330.00 over 0.25 seconds
        Camera - Set Player 2 (Blue)'s camera Rotation to (Facing of (Triggering unit)) over 0.25 seconds

Help please.

make a periodic event that adjusts the angle for the player to the facing angle of the selected unit

Camera - Lock camera target for Player 2 (Blue) to (Triggering unit), offset etc.

This action ALREADY locks the rotation to the units rotation

Camera - Set Player 2 (Blue)'s camera Rotation to (Facing of (Triggering unit)) over 0.25 seconds

By using this action, you are unlocking the rotation and changing it to a once-off value.

Hope this helps

Ok a little more info from me. you choose heroes like in dota (from a tavern) and then there are some cinematics in the game so i dont think it would work whit a periodic.

Disable the periodic trigger during those cinematics?

Camera - Lock camera target for Player 2 (Blue) to (Random unit from Player2unitgroup), offset by (0.00, 0.00) using Default rotation
