I´m trying to make a camera that stops against a wall but stays at the same height (unlike the "set camera to follow" comand that stops the camera agaist a wall but lowers it to the character´s feet).
The code I´ve written goes through the wall if it gets a certain distance away from the wall. Does anyone know why and how to fix it?

I would use a dummy object for collision.

Like a box below the camera. Just keep the camera above that box, and code collision for the box, that way, if the box doesnt go through something, the camera wont.

Wait a minute. I´ve just checked my code. I already do use a dummy!
Object 10 is the dummy. So my code should work...But it doesn´t.
