Camera keeps falling

Coding
#1

Each time this student attempts to play her code, the camera falls down. We’ve checked the x, y, and z coordinates etc and can’t find anything wrong with it. Can anyone please tell us how to get the camera to stay ‘mid air’ when the game is started? CoSpaces Edu :: Camera keeps falling

Hi @KymTrew ,

The camera is falling because your camera movement is Walk - in this mode, physics is applied to the camera.

For the camera to stay in mid-air, double-click/tap on your camera, click on Camera, then under Camera Movement, select “Fixed position”, “Fly”, or “Orbit”.

If this solves your problem, please mark this as solved.

Many thanks,

Hi Geoff
This does not solve my problem. In every other cospaces of my students, the camera is set on walk so you can e.g. walk though a room and it in those other spaces it does not fall down. But in this cospace it does: CoSpaces Edu :: Aufgabe 3: Euer Zimmer

Thanks!

Hi Sebastian,

Walk movement applies physics, so the camera has been raised, and is falling down. The reason it has been raised, I guess, is because the scale of the space is so big. I would lower the camera to a height where it doesn’t fall down, and scale all the items down (Ctrl+A) to make the camera view realistic.

If you don’t think this solves the problem, please allow the space to be remixed, and we can take a look.

Hi Geoff

Thanks! I downscaled it and that did the trick.

Cheers,
Sebastian
