Camera Influence Fields

Mon, 01 Jan 0001 00:00:00 +0000

Camera Influence Fields modify the effective priority of Phantom Cameras without changing their base priority values. They call AddCameraInfluence / RemoveCameraInfluence on the Cam Manager bus, identified by camera name. Multiple influences on the same camera stack additively.

There are two influence component types:

GlobalCameraInfluenceComponent — Applies a priority influence globally for its entire active lifetime. Place this on the StageData entity so it activates and deactivates automatically with the stage.
CameraInfluenceFieldComponent — Applies a priority influence only when the player enters a defined spatial volume. Requires a PhysX Collider set as a trigger on the same entity. See Physics Trigger Volume Utility.

For usage guides and setup examples, see The Basics: GS_PhantomCam.
