Why is half the screen green when I try to do split screen?

That green box is the other camera. The camera, however, was in the sphere so you couldn't see the sphere through it.

For some odd reason camera 0 has a blue background by default while the rest have green. I don't think there's a reason, just use "color backdrop" to change it to whatever color you want.



p.s. Half the screen isn't green on my computer. It just has a green box at the top left corner. This probably means we have different size monitors or are running it with different resolutions. If you are trying to make sure it is half the screen for everyone, use screen width() and screen height() instead of just fixed numbers.

Messed up how?
Do you mean they look different sizes? That's because you moved one camera further back than the other.


Also, you don't need to make 2 camera's. For player 1 use camera 0 and player 2 can use camera 1. Right now you have camera 0 in the background for no reason since it automatically already exists.

So actually you should use something like this-

for me, when I try your source code (both of them) the same thing happens. the sphere becomes all warped.

Press print screen, then paste the image into an image editing program, like windows paint.
