Hello, thank you for looking at my post. I recently made a new plugin that lets you rotate your Roblox studio camera using your arrow keys. This really helps when you don’t have a mouse since the only way to rotate your camera is right clicking.
I personally am using a laptop and the trackpad fails a lot so I’m using the plugin instead. I have it saved locally so it only affects my laptop and not my pc. Here is the plugin:
I rarely use my laptop for development anymore since I got a computer but I know that this would have been a game changer for me back then. I can see this being super useful.
This plug-in has completely ruined my studio movements. I tried re-installing it but even uninstalled, I can’t move. I don’t know if this is the plug-in’s fault or anything that has to do with studio, but it has completely ruined my mouse control. I cannot move nor rotate with the mouse.
Same here. I had to disable the plugin (make sure to disable it before uninstalling it, sometimes when you uninstall plugins that change studio controls or core stuff without disabling them first in the Plugin Manager window their effects can still be seen even after uninstalling) for it to go back to normal
The old version of the plugin set the camera to scriptable which breaks mouse movement. Once I figured out it was disabling people’s mouses, I redid the code. The newest version should give a popup in the top left corner of your screen to unlock the camera if it detects that your studio has been affected by the old plugins bug.
You can also do it manually by going to the camera object in workspace and settings its cameratype to custom
The reupdated the code and it should work on all devices. Roblox has a dumb feature where you have to press update because they wanted to seem like the app store. The old version disabled the mouse as it had one line of code changing the workspace camera to scriptable which would completely disable your mouse movement controls. I fixed this in the future updates and I even made a popup that detects if your camera is stuck which prompts you to unlock it. I tested it with a mouse with the new plugin and it seemed to work good but maybe there is still something else?
Thank you! I really do want to apologize if my comments sounded harsh in any way ( not intended )
Just play-tested the plug-in again,works like a charm!
Thanks, I appreciate you making this resource publicly available, as I’ve lost my mouse recently and won’t have it till later today. Is there a sensitivity setting? If not it would be nice to have a NumberValue of sorts which we could change.
