Do you simply want your player actor to sit towards the top of the screen ?
I have a scene size 3 times the height of the screen, I'm making an endless game like doodle jump. The display starts at the top and actors are spawned at random and fall down at the pace of the main actor velocity. If my hero falls the camera follows down. Also just to note, I want my hero to be always based one third up from the bottom of the display. How do I make the actor stay one third up and still control the camera?
scene / screen / display / camera / hero / actor . . . if there's one thing that confuses me (besides a bottle and a half of red wine) it's interchangeable terms used in the description of an issue !
I take it the actor you want to stay 1/3 up from the bottom of the camera/display/scene is also called the hero ?
Constrain camera origin X to (actor X - half the scene size)
Constrain camera origin Y to (actor Y - a third of the scene size)
Sorry haha I'm not the best at describing anything. Basically like how mega jump keep their monster on the lower half of the screen.
The second option constrain camera origin T to (actor Y - a third of the scene size)
Hope that works
