So lets say i have the players camera stuck in one spot using Camera.CoordinateFrame but what if i wanted to point the camera to something? How could i do this?

Also would the camera look to the left with it?

Thanks!

You actually need to use the CFrame constructor that takes two Vector3 values:

--LocalScript

local cam = workspace.CurrentCamera
local camPos = Vector3.new(5, 5, 5) --Example
local target = workspace.Part

cam.CoordinateFrame = CFrame.new(camPos, target.Position)

lookVector is a read-only Value.

And that constructor is 'CFrame.new(Vector3 position, Vector3 point)'. It creates a CFrame at position, looking at point. Perci1 4988 — 10y
