Camera moves with your mouse in 2D view

Help and Feedback Scripting Support
#1

Hello Developers!

I’ve been working on a game recently and it’s a sort of 2d game with a bit of a mix with 3d.
Anyways, what i want to tell you guys is that i’m stuck at a problem. Or atleast, i have no idea how i should make something what i want to achieve.

But what do i want to achieve?

You can see it by the title, i want it that the camera moves with your mouse.
But, i already have a script (Down here) located in StarterPlayerScripts that makes the camera view 2D and locked. (Check this video out to see what i mean). So in short; I want to add an extra feature to make the camera move a bit with your mouse

I hope someone could help me :smiley:

(Sorry if it’s very unclear, explaining isn’t really my best thing)

-- This is the 2D view script

local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer
local camera = workspace.CurrentCamera
local RunService = game:GetService("RunService")

player.CharacterAdded:Wait()
player.Character:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")
camera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Attach
camera.FieldOfView = 40
camera.DiagonalFieldOfView = 67
camera.MaxAxisFieldOfView = 72

RunService.Stepped:Connect(function()
	camera.CFrame = CFrame.new(player.Character.HumanoidRootPart.Position) * CFrame.new(0, 5, 30)
end)

Did you want it that way?, place it in StarterCharacterScripts

local Players = game:GetService("Players").LocalPlayer
local char = script.Parent
local hrp = char:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")
local Mouse = Players:GetMouse()
local cam = workspace.CurrentCamera
cam.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Scriptable

--X,Y max 
local MouseMove = true --> turn on/off move with mouse
local XCameraMAX= 10
local YCameraMAX = 8
local mouseX
local mouseY

--folder for camera
local PlayerCamera = Instance.new("Folder")
PlayerCamera.Parent = workspace
PlayerCamera.Name = "PlayerCamera"

--camera
local cameraPart = Instance.new("Part")
cameraPart.Transparency = 1
cameraPart.CanCollide = false
cameraPart.Parent = workspace.PlayerCamera
cameraPart.CFrame = CFrame.new(hrp.Position + Vector3.new(-30,10,0), hrp.Position) -->camera angle

--camera move
local bp = Instance.new("BodyPosition")
bp.MaxForce = Vector3.new(math.huge, math.huge, math.huge)
bp.P = 100000 --> camera speed
bp.Parent = cameraPart

--loop
game:GetService("RunService").RenderStepped:Connect(function()
	if MouseMove then
	    mouseX = XCameraMAX * (workspace.CurrentCamera.ViewportSize.X / 2 - Mouse.X) / workspace.CurrentCamera.ViewportSize.X / 2
		mouseY = YCameraMAX * (workspace.CurrentCamera.ViewportSize.Y / 2 - Mouse.Y) / workspace.CurrentCamera.ViewportSize.Y / 2
	else
		mouseX = 0
		mouseY = 0
	end
	
	bp.Position = hrp.Position + Vector3.new(-20, 6 + mouseY, 0 - mouseX) --> X = approach, Y = up down, Z = left right,
	cam.CFrame = cameraPart.CFrame
end)

Yes but the controls are wrong, because when i press D, i walk forward. S i walk to the right. A i walk back (So to the camera) and with W i walk to the left, which is not good. But the script is good, except the movement is wrong.

Edit: Nevermind! I just needed to delete the old script!

Thank you for your help! You really helped me with this!
