Ok, this is probably going to sound REALLY dumb so excuse me but I am new to Vizard.

What I would like to is make it so when I have a Wheelbarrow move the camera stays behind it at a specified distance. I currently only have the Wheelbarrow moving (and that doesn't even completely work seeing as when I move forward or backwards meanwhile turning the object slows down and goes for twice the time it should); anyway, I have tried nearly everything I could find but nothing seems to work so... heres what I have... it doesn't work at all so any assistance what so ever would be soooooooooo helpful.

BTW to anyone who cares this is going to be used for a game prototype so any additional information would be much appreciated.

Most of the script below has been derived from tutorials within the trial version. Thanks

viz.go()

viz.mouse(viz.OFF)

Wheelbarrow = viz.add('wheelbarrow.ive')

Wheelbarrow.translate(0,0,6)

MOVE_SPEED = 10
TURN_SPEED = 360

MOVE_FORWARD = vizact.move(0,0,MOVE_SPEED,.01)
MOVE_BACKWARD = vizact.move(0,0,-MOVE_SPEED,.01)

TURN_RIGHT = vizact.spin(0,1,0,TURN_SPEED,.01)
TURN_LEFT = vizact.spin(0,-1,0,TURN_SPEED,.01)
