ThreeJS orbit camera around moving point
0
I'm trying to orbit an entity's position using Orbit Controls but when the entity moves the camera does't follow the point basically like a rotatable 3rd person camera. I'm new to Threejs.
Here is what I got so far:
class Camera {
constructor() {
this.fov = 75;
this.near = 1;
this.far = 4000;
this.angle = Math.PI / 6;
this.cameraAdditions = new THREE.Vector3();
this.entityToFollow = null;
}
init() {
this.TJS_camera = new THREE.PerspectiveCamera(this.fov, window.innerWidth / window.innerHeight, this.near, this.far);
this.TJS_camera.position.z = 2;
this.TJS_camera.position.y = 2;
this.controls = new THREE.OrbitControls(this.TJS_camera);
ProjectA.Game.getScene().add(this.TJS_camera);
}
setEntityToFollow(entity) {
this.entityToFollow = entity;
}
update(delta) {
if (this.entityToFollow && this.entityToFollow.getObject()) {
let entityObject = this.entityToFollow.getObject();
if (entityObject.scene != null) {
entityObject = entityObject.scene;
}
const camera = this.TJS_camera;
this.controls.target.set(
entityObject.position.x,
entityObject.position.y,
entityObject.position.z
);
this.controls.update();
}
}} window.PACamera = Camera;
