Third Person Camera zoom with COMBAT EXAMPLE

ConanBlade94

I am using COMBAT EXAMPLE to create a resident evil style combat and inventory system, but since I use the third person camera I would like that when I aim the weapon the camera near the player is zoomed, is it possible to do something like this?

I'd say it'd be a case of switching to a separate camera that's got its own set of distance/FOV etc values whenever aiming, and switching back to the "regular" camera otherwise.

The package's PlayerCombat script has an "IsAiming()" function that you can read in a custom script to set the correct camera. Something like this:

using UnityEngine;
using AC;
using AC.CombatExample;

public class AimCamera : MonoBehaviour
{

    public _Camera normalCamera;
    public _Camera aimCamera;
    public PlayerCombat playerCombat;
    public float transitionTime = 1f;

    void Update ()
    {
        if (!KickStarter.stateHandler.IsInGameplay ())
        {
            return;
        }

        if (playerCombat.IsAiming ())
        {
            if (KickStarter.mainCamera.attachedCamera == normalCamera)
            {
                KickStarter.mainCamera.SetGameCamera (aimCamera, transitionTime);
            }
        }
        else
        {   
            if (KickStarter.mainCamera.attachedCamera == aimCamera)
            {
                KickStarter.mainCamera.SetGameCamera (normalCamera, transitionTime);
            }
        }
    }

}

Paste into a C# script named AimCamera and attach to your Player, then fill in its Inspector.

To reiterate the package's Readme, though: this example is meant to demonstrate the use of custom scripting to extend gameplay. You will need to rely on custom scripting to make a proper combat game with AC.
