it be cool...if instead of when you use lazy eye = 7 and got to the edge of the screen with your mob, it just popped and re centered.....


Instead you could code it some how so that it smoothly scrolled to recenter your view........

I think you can code this i some how....


Could someone please tell me how it can be done?

You could do something that will constantly change your client eye back to you with a loop until your client eye is back to you. Or you can make an invisible object walk in a pace to you and set the eye to the object.

It's not that hard. Create an invisible, nondense object at the same location as the player's mob. Set client_eye to it. Every time you move, check if the distance between that invisible object, and the player, is greater than a certain amount(eg 6). If so, have the invisble object walk_to the player's mob.

Haha, wow, that's like:
game
    New()
        src.BeCool()
    proc/BeCool()
        docoolstuff()


Anyways, lemme try this...

mob/proc/adjustviewtick()
    while(src)
        var/needadjust = 0
        if(src.client)
            if(get_dist(src,src.client.eye)<1)
                needadjust = 0
            if(get_dist(src,src.client.eye)>6)
                needadjust = 1
            if(needadjust)
                src.client.eye = get_step(src.client.eye,src)
        sleep(2)
    return


I think that should do it for you. Try it out by calling it for your player mobs and let me know if it works!
