Is it possible not having the camera moving when target is in the deadzone ?

Hello guys,

I'm trying to prototype something simple. I have a scene, a character and a Vcam. By default the Vcam has no target. When the character is clicked I do two things :

• I set the character as the vcam target
• I set the character position according to the current mouse position converted to the world coordinate

Doing this is fine the first time I click the character. The Vcam gives me an extra-feature I wanted, when the character is reaching the edges the Vcam follows so I can move character along my whole scene.

But the next time I click on the character it seems that the Vcam moves even if the character is already in the dead zone. So during this movement, even if I do not move the mouse, the current mouse position is still converted to world coordinate, so the computed position is always different and the character position changes.

I'm not sure what I can do to prevent that. What I want is easy to say : I want to click on my character, the camera should not moves and the character should not move. When I start moving the mouse the character should move. If I reach the edges, because of cinemachine, the vcam should moves too.

Does that makes sense ? How would you do that ?

Thanks

 

Ok, I will do that tomorrow at the office.

Thanks

 

Hello,

It seems that when you set a vcam target which was previously null then the vcam automatically and instantly set the target to the ScreenX and ScreenY position ignoring completely the damping. I tested that by dragging a character and when the character is close to the screen edges I set the vcam target using the character transform -> the character is instantly moved at ScreenX and ScreenY position -> not smooth at all ;-)
