Camera target

[Alan34]

Assuming I have a chopper named Huey and I want to target the camera on the gunner of that chopper;  in the past I used the format Hueyg to reference the gunner in scripts but this does not seem to work when using camera's, has anyone done this?

When a unit boards a vehicle, their position (obtained with the getpos command) is actually back where they got in!!

So as far as setting the camera to target the gunner, it can't really be done (as far as I know ).

It is however possible to target co-ordinates, rather than a unit/vehicle. So what you could do is work out where the gunner is in relation to the centre of your vehicle, and target those co-ordinates

Or you can just name the pilot and gunner and do the unitname moveingunner vehiclename, the same for the pilot. And have the camera be set on the gunner!

I tried that before...for some reason, the moveingunner fellow jumps out of the chopper.
