For those who are getting stuck like i did making multiple cameras here are some lines of code that will help.

+ Code Snippet

Position camera 0,0,0
REM This positions your main camera

Now adding extra cameras, when added other cameras they need their own
- Backdrop
- position (defaulted to 0,0,0
- view

For those who recieve a GREEN SCREEN this code will help

+ Code Snippet

Make camera 1
Backdrop off 1
set camera view 1,0,0,0,0
position camera 1,10,10,10

This makes the camera but does not draw it to the screen, this cameras output can then be used to draw to an image with the

SET CAMERA TO IMAGE

I posted this as i have just figured out the issue and thought it may help someone
