I don't know if this counts as Newcomer-ishy or not but anyways I need help makin a camera control that wraps around the back of a space ship when it turns.
Set Camera to Follow doesn't curve around the back of the camera like I want it to it turns and doesn't allow you to see behind the ship

I need to find out how to get the x and z adjustments needed to position the camera behind the ship when it rotates.

I tried to implement my pre-calculus and use the Law of CoSines to find the x and z adjustments needed to move the camera to re-align it with the ship but it didn't work at all.

If you are using pre-calc for this then you are doing something wrong.



Insanity is just a state of mind.
