[SOLVED] How to disable camera, but keep updating controls?

[Peter]

How do I tell the engine to stop rendering the camera, but keep updating the controls?

Hi,

 

What do you mean by 'stop rendering the camera'? Could you please describe your use case in more details?

 

Thanks!

If I don't use engine.game.setPlayer to set the main camera/player, then the players controls are not updated.

 

I tried using player.updateControls instead, but it does not work if the engine's player is not set.

 

I display some information to a WidgetSprite that is based on the player's position. If I don't want to show the camera, but still move the player object on input and update the widgetsprite, how would I do this?

Hi Peter,

 

You can try to manually update your controls via setState() / clearState() functions from Controls Class in world update.
