I do not have the code with me as i don't have net access at home yet cos i moved house but i have a camera that i want to slowly rotate right but i enter one for speed but it moves the camera from 0 to 180 in one movement when i want it to move gradually anyone know why?

The code is something like this.

In regards to your second question, to make the camera rotate around an object try something like:



You may have to alternate the cos/sin commands if you get bad results. Increase the move value to increase the speed of travel around the object.

@lcfcfan, the code is doing exactly what you tell it to do ... the last parameter is the number of steps you want it to take.

oh right i think i get what you are saying, if i put 30 instead of one it will move 30 times till it gets to 180 instead of just moving it to 180 in one movement?

i'll try that out when i get home!

Thanx
