I need some help

I want to place a gun on the screen with the camera behind it.

I can move the camera forwards,backwards,right & left.

I would like to be able to turn the object with my mouse and then move it forwards or backwards so the camera will follow the object.

Can anybody help me with a small piece of code ?

Don't move the object ... move the camera and keep the gun model at the same location relative to the camera. If you do that then you might want to look up the help file for the DISABLE OBJECT ZDEPTH COMMAND.

Alternatively, as above move the camera not the gun but use LOCK OBJECT ON ... again see the help file for details on the command.
