    Hi,

    I've searched the forum and the manual for this but could only find outdated information (BB1).

    Let's say I have a racing game and I want the camera to move forward if the car speeds up, as in give the player the possibility to actually progress faster, instead of just blocking him at the top, how do I do that?

    I clicked the game frame button but couldn't make out anything that could represent camera movement options.

    Thanks for your help!

    Add-on: I just started a new project and this time (not sure which setting is different), the camera does move forward when I get close to the top of the screen, however, I would want the camera do that forward movement much earlier (the car being located further down), otherwise the player would run into oncoming cars too easily, as he sees them too late.

    :rolleyes: Solution: Activate "Show Game Frame" and drag the yellow box into the right position. Clicking on each side changes the border's property. ;)

    That's right. Maybe also play with world/Camera smooth. Sometimes it can have a cool effect.
