Posted March 5, 201312 yr I need a bit of help in doing the following tasks: 1 - intercept keyboard directional commands so the player object doesn't move, and lets me work on that input. 2 - Use that input to control a remote camera. What kind of support is there in Forge for these tasks? If this isn't possible then it's quite alright as I'm researching what's doable, for a mod I'm in the planning phases of. If I can't intercept the movement commands and redirect them to a remote camera, then this enhancement I won't be able to do. On a side note, if it is doable, does the remote camera/view use absolute reference to the world or relative to the player icon? If it's relative then I'm not sure it'll work as if the player gets hit by a zombie, the camera view should NOT jump which is what I am afraid a relative offset will do. I have looked at the code but apparently there is something I'm missing. Credentials: I've programmed in a few other languages, C++, C#, perl, so I've a few years of experience.. but I do NOT have that experience with Java so this is new territory for me. If there is someone here who was in a similar boat and has advice to help me get up to speed, that would be appreciated as well.
