Let’s say I have some suspenseful scene in a game, and I want the camera to gradually zoom in on a spot on the screen. (In this case, a background object with given screen coordinates) I know I’m supposed to use the handycam controls in Lua, but I’m not familiar with how it all works.

You can literally just load handycam and set handycam[1].zoom, to set the player 1 camera's zoom level. A value of 1 is default, anything larger than 1 will zoom in.

Thanks!
