    Can you post screen shots of your code as that will help!

    Could it be that your actor was unlocked on the scene when you added the Control Camera behavior into its prototype?

    Yes, it could be that, but make sure also that you have made the size of your play screen area bigger. :)
    Hope that helps ;)

    Do you have a control camera on more than one actor?
  • GM_PandagamesGM_Pandagames Member Posts: 228
    no just one.

    sounds like you need to make your tracking area smaller its the little camera icon above the scene.

    I'm actually having the same issue with my game. I've got the Control Camera behavior on one actor, and the camera field is pretty tight around him. But when I have him move, he just moves off screen.

    PS: I'm using the Windows Client.

    NVM. I actually found the issue. The actor I had controlling the camera was in a label with the "scrollable" box unchecked. Once I moved it to one that WAS Scrollable, it worked fine. :-)

    This problem is perplexing and frustrating me as well. I have worked with many tutorials and followed them step by step. I use the windows client.

    If you copy and paste this link it should bring you to the tinypic where I have my code.
