How do I make a function fire when the camera moves?
I have a viewportframe that has an arrow mesh indicating wind direction (Vector3) relative to the camera. I use renderstep to update it smoothly, but I want to make the code fire only when the camera is actually moving, so it doesn't run when it's not needed.
Is there a way to know when a camera starts or stops moving?
I tried looking for UserInputService, the camera Object, without results.

Guess I found out a way. Sorry for the post.
You can use UserInputService.InputBegan and InputEnded to check if the player is holding the mousebutton2 (right one):
local UIS = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local rightclick = false
UIS.InputBegan:connect(function(input,process)
if not process and input.UserInputType == Enum.UserInputType.MouseButton2 then
rightclick = true
end
end)
UIS.InputEnded:connect(function(input,process)
if input.UserInputType == Enum.UserInputType.MouseButton2 then
rightclick = false
end
end)
After this you use UserInputService.InputChanged to check if the player moved the mouse and then, if he is holding the mousebutton2, do the code:
UIS.InputChanged:Connect(function(input,process)
if rightclick == true and input.UserInputType == Enum.UserInputType.MouseMovement then
--code here
end
end)
