Camera control questions, how to pause on a spot, how to reset camera to original?

QuestionMan

I have a side scroller and the camera is causing me some problems.

Firstly, I have a bullet that fires to hit an enemy, the camera follows the bullet as it scrolls over, it kills the enemy and respawns at the beginning. But this happens so quick you don't get to see the guy dying, or sometimes see him at all. How can I fix this?

Also, I'd like to be able to press a button and have the camera reset to the beginning spot, how to do?

Thanks!

change the alpha on the bullet when it hits enemy
but leave it in that screenArea

delay the spawn of new bullet until the enemy is dead
with this scenario: … think that recycling bullet would work better … than a spawn
