Zandose	Is it possible to run a local triggers for checking is a mouse has moved over a trackable then right some stuff to a global variable to move the camera for only that player?

Tim.	Yes, however remember that you cannot move or remove the trackables.

Thats not a problem. The map is only 32x32 with preplaced trackables to detect where the mouse is.

actually... no.

there is NO way to check which player clicked or touched the trackable. GetTriggeringPlayer doesnt work, and creating triggers for 1 player creates a desync. (Running events for 1 player desyncs 2)

This meathod uses GetLocalPlayer() I asumed when he said 'run local triggers' he meant using GetLocalPlayer.

iNfraNe	still you cannot do anything usefull with local player and trackables. Everything will desync for obvious reasons

I read somewherte yesterday that you can use local trackables (to detect which player) on b.net without any problems like desync.
