Hi there!
Iv'e been searching the forums for over 2 hours now (yes, I said hours), but can find how to make an ent(camera) follow another ent (player), x units over the ent(player).
And don't post some crap about topdown view.
BTW the ent(camera) wont have any function, except that the player will attach its view to it (attach_view(id,cameraent[id])).
