Maybe this question has been asked before but i want to know. I want the camera to follow the main actor while he auto walks?

    just put the control camera behavior in the main actor. Also by hitting the little camera thats next to the mouse cursor at the top left of where the scene is, you can set the bounding box for the camera.

    cheers

    @john when I make the camera on the main actor it will follow him as he walks automatically. He wont go off screen right?
