Hi there,
i want my camera go back and forth and therefore I wrote this little piece of code. Unfoirtunateley, tha camera does not move a bit. what am i doing wrong?

By the way, i defined the variable Ort outside of this loop ...

/////////////CODE:
do
position camera 1, 0, 30, Ort#
A:
while Ort# > 100
Ort# = Ort# + 0.1
endwhile

goto B:

text 50,50,"Esc to exit"

B:
While Ort# > 0
Ort# = Ort# - 1

endwhile
goto A:
loop

to while Ort# < 100

Its not a bug, its a feature!

No, I took a better look at your code and its the while statements. They keep incrementing the values until they reach the value, but the camera is only updated after they're both done. This should work:

do
position camera 1, 0, 30, Ort#
if Ort# < 100
Ort# = Ort# + 0.1
else
done = 1
endif
if Ort# > 0 and done = 1
Ort# = Ort# - 1
endif
loop

Its not a bug, its a feature!
