I'm trying to put together a plugin that lets me switch between different cameras.
It will be used to "shoot" a tournament that will be streamed live on twitch.

I have taken apart a plugin I found here called "spectator camera".
Just to see what I could do, I added some coordinates from a file created by "map spawn editor".

It sort of worked, I can switch to a camera but the coordinates are not the same as the spawn point.
And there is no angle to it, so it is just sitting close to the skybox aiming straight forward.

The idea is that I want to be able to press different keys and switch between different shots.
What am I doing wrong? And how do I get the coordinates (including angles) that I need?

Thank you very much!
