setCamera Question

[akroma222]

Hi All,
just wondering about how setCamera works... (how to correctly reference other cameras too?)

Ive checked this thread ....

viewtopic.php?f=22&t=8120&p=82136&hilit ... era#p82136

....and seen GameMode:setCamera(nil) will return the camera to the party view point... but no luck

Ive just added a Camera Component to a (light) Object

Code: Select all

{
			class = "Camera",
			name = "camera",
			--fov = 100,
			--nearClip = 0.1,
			--farClip = 100,
			onInit = function(self)
				GameMode.setCamera(self)
			end,
			--onUpdate = function(self)
				--print("cam update")
			--end,
		},

The onInit works fine, changed the camera... but cant change back??

Also, do we NEED to do things in the update Hook?? (Ive checked how the main menu camera works... )
