3rd person camera

i looked through threads and searched through dusty tutorials for cameras but nothing worked. looked through a map jungle paintball to see how its done in that map but using that didnt do what i needed. the map im creating has a hero that you select and it spawns at a random location on the map. my problem is that i cant get the camera to lock onto the unit that is created. was going to put lock to last created unit but that would lock every players camera to that unit. also lock to the houses that respawn. does anyone have a gui 3rd person camera setup that would work in my situation or can give pointers to help.


could i get the camera to lock to the currently selected unit for a player?

well the main thing i want it to do is when you select your unit from a shop, the camera will lock onto the unit that appears. you only have 1 unit on the map per player. ive messed around with differant options to get it right but nothing seems to work. if i place 1 unit on the map for player 1 and lock the camera for player 1 to that unit it works fine. but i want the player to choose the unit instead of forcing them to have the char that happens to be there.
