Simple Follow

Has similar logic to Glued Follow, but with the additional option to be offset from its target location.

This mode is useful for things like character controllers in a fixed angle perspective.

Properties

2D 3D

Follow Target

Type: Node2D

Default: null

Determines which Node should be followed. The Camera will follow the position of the Follow Target based on the Follow Mode type and its parameters.

Note: During runtime, properties should be modified and read via their setters & getters respectively.

---

Setter

void set_follow_target_node(Node2D target_node)

Example

pcam.set_follow_target_node(player_node)

Example

pcam.set_follow_target_node(player_node)

Getter

Node2D get_follow_target_node()

Node3D get_follow_target_node()

Example

pcam.get_follow_target_node()

Example

pcam.get_follow_target_node()

2D 3D

Follow Target Offset

Type: Vector2

Default: Vector2(0,0)

Offsets the follow target's position.

Note: During runtime, properties should be modified and read via their setters & getters respectively.

---

Setter

void set_follow_target_offset(Vector2 offset)

Example

pcam.set_follow_target_offset(Vector2(1, 1))

Example

pcam.set_follow_target_offset(Vector3(1, 1, 1))

Getter

Vector2 get_follow_target_offset()

Vector3 get_follow_target_offset()

Example

pcam.get_follow_target_offset()

Example

pcam.get_follow_target_offset()

Damping

Type: bool

Default: false

Applies a damping effect on the Camera's movement. Leading to heavier / slower camera movement as the targeted node moves around.

This is useful to avoid sharp and rapid camera movement.

Note: During runtime, properties should be modified and read via their setters & getters respectively.

---

Setter

void set_follow_has_damping(bool value)

Example

pcam.set_follow_has_damping(true)

Getter

bool get_follow_has_damping()

Example

pcam.get_follow_has_damping()

Damping Value

Type: float

Default: 10

Defines the damping amount.

Lower value = slower / heavier camera movement.

Higher value = faster / sharper camera movement.

Note: During runtime, properties should be modified and read via their setters & getters respectively.

---

Setter

void set_follow_damping_value(float damping_value)

Example

pcam.set_follow_damping_value(5)

Getter

float get_follow_damping_value()

Example

pcam.get_follow_damping_value()
