Follow Entity in Scene View

What is the quickest method to get the scene view camera to follow an entity with a Translation (plus a Rotation) component?

 

Has nobody else tried having the Scene View camera follow an Entity yet?

 

IDK if the SceneView camera can follow an entity, but the game camera can through proxy:

 

You also can "convert and destroy" camera itself, and work with it in systems.

 

Thank you @Lurking-Ninja. Yeah, though my question is in regards to the Scene View camera only. I have not been able to find much information regarding the Scene View camera following an Entity.

 

In all seriousness, I suspect this might not be possible yet. Your want for it is valid, and the usage case is important. But since DOTS still doesn’t have wide support for things like skinned animation, I imagine controlling the scene camera has not been prioritized, if it’s come up internally at all.

 

It's actually quite easy but I did only a quick test:

Code (CSharp):

1. public class SceneViewCameraMovement : SystemBase
2. {
3.     protected override void OnUpdate()
4.     {
5.         Entities.ForEach((ref Translation t, in MovementX m) =>
6.         {
7.             // Return in case the scene view tab is closed
8.             var sceneView = SceneView.lastActiveSceneView;
9.             if(sceneView == null)
10.                 return;
11.  
12.             // Move the test object
13.             var position = t;
14.             position.Value.x += m.Value;
15.             t = position;
16.  
17.             // Update the scene view camera
18.             sceneView.LookAt(position.Value); // You can also use LookAtDirect which does not "animate" the movement
19.         }).Run();
20.     }
21. }
