Hi!
My new project I’m working on has a system that I want to implement, where when a remote event to the client is fired, it makes the client’s camera over their shoulder. I made this work, however, I don’t know how to make the camera over the shoulder follow the player’s head and movements, instead of player being able to rotate around themselves.
My script
local remoteEvent = game.Workspace.RemoteEvents.RemoteCamera
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local ContextActionService = game:GetService("ContextActionService")
local UserInputService = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local RunService = game:GetService("RunService")
local camera = workspace.CurrentCamera
local cameraOffset = Vector3.new(1, 2, 5)
local player = Players.LocalPlayer
local function onNotifyPlayer(playerr)
print("Incoming eventw3t5")
local character = player.Character or player.CharacterAdded:wait()
local humanoid = character:WaitForChild("Humanoid")
local rootPart = character:WaitForChild("HumanoidRootPart")
humanoid.AutoRotate = false
local cameraAngleX = 0
local cameraAngleY = 0
local function playerInput(actionName, inputState, inputObject)
-- Calculate camera/player rotation on input change
if inputState == Enum.UserInputState.Change then
cameraAngleX = cameraAngleX - inputObject.Delta.X
-- Reduce vertical mouse/touch sensitivity and clamp vertical axis
cameraAngleY = math.clamp(cameraAngleY-inputObject.Delta.Y*0.4, -75, 75)
-- Rotate root part CFrame by X delta
rootPart.CFrame = rootPart.CFrame * CFrame.Angles(0, math.rad(-inputObject.Delta.X), 0)
end
end
ContextActionService:BindAction("PlayerInput", playerInput, true, Enum.UserInputType.MouseMovement, Enum.UserInputType.Touch)
RunService.RenderStepped:Connect(function()
if camera.CameraType ~= Enum.CameraType.Scriptable then
camera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Scriptable
end
local startCFrame = CFrame.new((rootPart.CFrame.Position)) * CFrame.Angles(0, math.rad(cameraAngleX), 0) * CFrame.Angles(math.rad(cameraAngleY), 0, 0)
local cameraCFrame = startCFrame:ToWorldSpace(CFrame.new(cameraOffset.X, cameraOffset.Y, cameraOffset.Z))
local cameraFocus = startCFrame:ToWorldSpace(CFrame.new(cameraOffset.X, cameraOffset.Y, -10000))
camera.CFrame = CFrame.new(cameraCFrame.Position, cameraFocus.Position)
end)
end
remoteEvent.OnClientEvent:Connect(onNotifyPlayer)
local function focusControl(actionName, inputState, inputObject)
-- Lock and hide mouse icon on input began
if inputState == Enum.UserInputState.Begin then
UserInputService.MouseBehavior = Enum.MouseBehavior.LockCenter
UserInputService.MouseIconEnabled = false
ContextActionService:UnbindAction("FocusControl", focusControl, false,
Enum.UserInputType.MouseButton1, Enum.UserInputType.Touch, Enum.UserInputType.Focus)
end
end
ContextActionService:BindAction("FocusControl", focusControl, false,
Enum.UserInputType.MouseButton1, Enum.UserInputType.Touch, Enum.UserInputType.Focus)
