Question Can i trigger the main camera auto focus on a atom like press F ??

[supperGR]

I'm using this great plugin teleport main camera to different point
Positioner - Main camera and Atom Positioner Plugin

But after teleport, focus point were reset to a quite close point, after that i have to refocus by pressing F every time

Is it possible to trigger main camera auto focus on a atom or person???

You can try to create a keybind using this plugin and set it up such that you use F as the keybind to teleport. Haven't tested it so it might not work perfectly because the two things are happening at the same time.

What is your goal?
If spawning is just the goal, use Spawnpoint to spawn AND be oriented to the Z axis. ( so scene playthrough situation )

For simple scene authoring (editing/creation), I don't see any nice way of creating a proper focus point with current tools/plugins, F is not like a crazy complex thing to hit when you're working

What an interesting perspective! I'll give a try
Thanks!

Alright, give us an update later because I'm also curious

What is my goal? Hmm..
For a better user experience? (meaning they don't need to press that crazy simple F key maybe?)

By the way, based on your experience, is it possible to trigger [CameraRig] movement? (Yeah, that's the window camera..) Like when i trigger the fov shifting from 40 to 28, [CameraRig] Self Z Relation will Increase 2? (in fact similar to the Hitchcock effect kind of ...... Yes I may be dreaming)

Embody could make this much easier but embody is more like kidnapping you on top of an Empty Atom for a rollercoaster ride really cool but you can't move freely, unfortunately that is not what i want

Sorry for my English, I'm just exploring whether VAM's inbuilt functionality can achieve the Hitchcock zoom effect in a more intuitive way

Test it real quick

Unfortunately when i press F it will only trigger the teleport, but can't focus at the same time, Just as you predicted
Damn it, it looked like it was just one step away from success, but it failed

Damn sorry then I don't know how to help you.
I was thinking about using Trigger the Trigger to decouple repositioning and focusing with a slight delay in timing such that the actions do not overlap, but it also won't work because the focus is the action that is not triggered and you have to do it manually. If you find a way to activate focus via a trigger, then you're set.
I'll try to find a solution when I get the chance!

BodyLanguage's PoseMe is the best plugin to achievement this goal, It can save the position and the focus distance at the same time and could be triggered easily anytime you want! (I couldn't forget how comfortable it was after I tried it)

U really should give a try!

Unfortunately PoseMe conflicts with the Logicbricks I'm using as the basic system, otherwise I can't wait to change my base logic system to BodyLanguage!
