Hello im making a campaign and i want to have a 3rd person camera and i have no idea how do make it. So i need help. What i want is 3rd person camera that follows the hero and has the same angle as him/her. eg
*Hero* moves diagonaly forward to the left so the camera follows him and changes viewing angle so it is facing the same way as *hero*
I'd rather it be in GUI but if not could whoever posted the code explain what each line does please. T.Y in advance

revolve	I think it's pretty simple, just make camera following unit using trigger. Also, that may be very, odd, when gaming, so you might want to add the normal camera as option too.

Pyrogasm	Trigger: Camera - Lock (Player 1) camera target to Some_Unit I believe.

Pyrogasm	It locks the center of the camera to the unit. You can change the angle and/or anything else you need to accordingly.

Thunder_Eye	Trigger: Camera Events Time - Every 0.50 seconds of game time Conditions Actions Camera - Set Player 1 (Red)'s camera Rotation to (Facing of Player1Hero) over 0.50 seconds Is that what you want?
