The command? It would be
How would you use this though? In a single player map, or in multiplayer? It's automatically set in multiplayer. |

Its the same one that zooms onto the player. Just replace [unit] with your definition of player.

He wants the camera to follow the player that killed him.
So the camera_set_dead script would need an extension. ______________________________________________________ Also that camera system by sonic and kirby is different. Its to get a side scrolling style of gaming in halo ce, for sonic's sonic maps. |

It's not possible by scripting alone. First, there's no way to test for the death of a player. Second, it's not impossible, but very difficult to find the correct (players) number for the player local to the instance of the game running the script. And third, there's no way to find out which player killed the other player so that the script can get his (players) number to zoom the camera over him.
