using UnityEngine;
using System.Collections;
using ORKFramework;

public class CameraMovement : MonoBehaviour {

Transform target;

void Start() {
}

void Update () {


GameObject player = ORK.Game.GetPlayer();

target.position = target.position + new Vector3 (0, 0, -10);

target = GameObject.Find ("Player").transform;

}
}

This is the script I'm currently trying to get working.

Unfortunately I keep getting this erorr: NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object
CameraMovement.Update () (at Assets/Scripts/CameraMovement.cs:17)


I'm not sure what to do to fix this. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

You access the target before it is assigned. Also, you're currently changing the position of the target (i.e. the player) instead of the camera.

ORK Framework comes with a built-in top-down camera that even supports sticking to defined borders around a scene (using box colliders).

Ah! I'll probably just use the built-in top-down camera then. I'll probably have to figure out how to make my character move more than just left and right, so I'll probably be needing a custom controller script eh?

If the built-in controls aren't working for you, you'll need custom controls :)

Awesome got it working. For anyone interested in additional details: Under Camera Controls I did use the Top Down Border setting and under both the Height and Height Damping settings I put 0. This helped remove any unwanted layer effects from showing up.
