Hey, I want to disable the use of the mouse scroll wheel, and the insert/home keys. (like in Legacies)

Any help will be greatly apreciated :D

i believe all you have to do is just lock the camera. than you can't move the camera off the unit at all.

A user can still use the mouse wheel and stuff, unless there is a different lock then the one im using :mtk:

Thanks for the reply though!

You could use a periodic event that goes like this:

E - every 0.5 seconds of game time
C -
A - set angle of attack of current camera to XXX over 0.6 seconds
A - set distance to target of current camera to XXX over 0.6 seconds
A - set rotation of current camera to XXX over 0.6 seconds

My map is gonna have alot of triggers going on at once, so that might cause some ppl to drop or something.

But, if that is my only option...


Thanks for the insight the!

If you remember back to the rpg made by blizzard called warchasers or comething like that, they disabled the mouse zoom. If I remember exactly they made a periodic trigger that set the angle of attack and rotation to the default. Just load up the map and take the exact trigger, or look at it and create your own.

If the 0.5-second trigger is too lag-heavy, try a 1-second periodic with the same idea - camera movements don't always have to be instantaneous.
