Camera is not changing?

Asked 201 views1 answers

In my game at the beginning the player's camera is supposed to go to a nice model background and a gui opens up and when the player presses the close button it will close the gui and the camera gets set back to custom. The gui works fine, but the camera does not change to scriptable, here is the code:

player = script.Parent.Parent
c = game.Workspace.Camera

local open = true
local buttonPressed =  false

local button = script.Parent.Parent.StarterGui.ScreenGui.Frame.closeScreen
	
function changeButtonPressed ()
	
	buttonPressed = true
	
end

button.MouseButton1Click:connect(changeButtonPressed)
while open == true do


if buttonPressed == false then
	c.CameraType = "Scriptable"
	pos = Vector3.new(-832.984, 12.576, -680.927)
	targ = Vector3.new(-562.654, 1.741, -789.89)
	c.CoordinateFrame = CFrame.new(pos,targ)
	wait(1)
end
 if buttonPressed == true then
	c.CameraType = "Custom"
	open = false
	end
end

Try this, this should work fine. (Make sure this is in a local script.)

local player = game.Players.LocalPlayer --Gets the current player.
repeat wait() until player.Character --Wait until the player's character exists.
local c = game.Workspace.CurrentCamera --Gets the player's current camera.

local open = true
local buttonPressed =  false

local button = player:WaitForChild("PlayerGui").ScreenGui.Frame.closeScreen

button.MouseButton1Click:connect(function() --Anonymous functions allow for less lines of code.
	buttonPressed = true
end)

while open == true do
	if buttonPressed == false then --Don't make separate if statements for each comparison, use else and elseif to your advantage.
		c.CameraType = "Scriptable"
		pos = Vector3.new(-832.984, 12.576, -680.927)
		targ = Vector3.new(-562.654, 1.741, -789.89)
		c.CoordinateFrame = CFrame.new(pos) --This is where the camera is positioned.
		c.Focus = CFrame.new(targ) --This is where the camera is focused at.
		wait(1)
	else
		c.CameraType = "Custom"
		c.CameraSubject = player.Character:WaitForChild("Humanoid") --Just in case the camera doesn't return back to normal.
		open = false
	end
end
