Move Camera Using WASD

Hey there, 👋 I’m wanting to manipulate the camera so that when you use WASD, just as you would when you’re moving your character, the camera moves. But, in my game, the character doesn’t get loaded in so the camera is the players’ entire view of the game. Sorry if that was a bit complicated, but I’d be grateful if you guys could he...

#

how would i make this only work if an event is triggered

#

you mean you wanna disconnect/connect this:

camera:GetPropertyChangedSignal("CameraType"):Connect(function()
    camera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Scriptable
end)

RunS.RenderStepped:Connect(updateCamera)

when a event is triggered?

#

also what's the purpose of this line

camera:GetPropertyChangedSignal("CameraType"):Connect(function()
    camera.CameraType = Enum.CameraType.Scriptable
end)
