Why doesn't this set the camera to the player?

I’m going to have to restart studio, give me a second.

#103

Would I need the line

tween.Completed:Wait()

I don’t really understand its purpose.

#104

It waits until the tween is completed.
Also, try out this code i may have fixed the problems:

local TweenService = game:GetService("TweenService")
local cams = game.Workspace.Cameras
local done = false

local camera = game.Workspace.Camera


local sceneTime = 20


local tween = nil

local forcestop = false

local tweeninfo = TweenInfo.new(	
	sceneTime,	
	Enum.EasingStyle.Sine,	
	Enum.EasingDirection.Out,	
	0,	
	true,	
	0	
)

local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer

function TweenFunction(camera1, camera2, ending)
	if forcestop == false then
		camera.CFrame = camera1.CFrame
		tween = TweenService:Create(camera, tweeninfo, {CFrame = camera2.CFrame})
		tween:Play()
		tween.Completed:Wait()
	end
end

script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
	forcestop = true
	if tween then
		tween:Cancel()
		tween:Cancel()
		tween:Cancel()
		tween:Cancel()
		tween:Cancel()
	end
	camera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Custom
	local character = workspace:FindFirstChild(player.Name)
	if character then
		camera.CameraSubject = character
	end
	script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Enabled = false
end)

repeat
	camera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Scriptable
	if not forcestop then
		TweenFunction(cams.Camera1, cams.Camera2, false)
	end

	if not forcestop then
		TweenFunction(cams.Camera3, cams.Camera4, false)
	end

	if not forcestop then
		TweenFunction(cams.Camera5, cams.Camera6, false)
	end

	if not forcestop then
		TweenFunction(cams.Camera7, cams.Camera8, false)
	end

	if not forcestop then
		TweenFunction(cams.Camera9, cams.Camera10, true)
	end

	camera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Custom
	local character = player.Character
	if character then
		camera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Custom --temp
		camera.CameraSubject = character
	end

until forcestop

Hmmm… The camera still tweens towards the player.
Why would I need to wait until the tween is completed?

#106

Well, i don’t think you’d like tweens just straight up overriding another without that one not even completing itself…

Is this line necessary?

local tween = nil
#108

Change it into local tween , no nil or anything.

I had this issue once before as well with something and this fixed it: Try adding into your code a line that sets the camera subject to the players character.

#110

I’m pretty sure I did that.

script.Parent.MouseButton1Click:Connect(function()
	forcestop = true
	if tween then
		tween:Cancel()
		tween:Cancel()
		tween:Cancel()
		tween:Cancel()
		tween:Cancel()
	end
	camera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Custom
	local character = workspace:FindFirstChild(player.Name)
	if character then
		camera.CameraSubject = character
	end
	script.Parent.Parent.Parent.Enabled = false
end)
#111

It’s in this block as well, CameraSubject set to the player character.

#112

Oh I didn’t see that, that’s strange

#113

I edited my original post to have the current issue.

When I look at the camera’s properties (via workspace) during a tween, the subject is Humanoid.

What’s the difference between humanoid and character in this code? Would I need to make any changes?

#115

In the start of the function, try changing the subject to be the part you want it to tween from
So in this case, camera1 variable.

#116

The start of the TweenFunction, right?

#117

Would I need to set the CFrame or anything? That’s what I’m doing in the rest of the function.

Thanks!

#118

Yep, at the very start

Keep the code as the way it is but add the CameraSubject thing, if it still doesn’t work let’s try not setting the CFrame.

That’s funny… it tweens from camera1 to camera2, then goes BACK to camera1…

It doesn’t go to the player however, so I think we’re getting somewhere.

#120

If I were to set the CFrame, would I keep the line with the CameraSubject, or replace it?

#121

Why not make so the camera1 tweens to camera2, instead of the actual camera?
Then after the function ends, you can make so it goes back to it’s original place.
