Hello I've folowed some tutorials and I came up with a code that displays a camera right behind a character. Now I dont know how to move the object with the camera and need some help.
-is there an easier way to make a character/player?
-whats an example code that moves the camera with the object(an if statement with dbkeydown I'm guessing)
-some commands or advice to make a playable character

I'm using this code to move the player using WASD or arrow keys

Notice that pl is my player object.

You would call it from the main loop, yes.

The rule is that if you want it to update every frame (like camera position, etc) it goes in the main loop
