Hello, I want to create a camera system similar to Nuclear Throne’s(Gameplay: [Nuclear Throne Gameplay (PC HD) [1080p60FPS] - YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n3IvM0f2Lvw&ab_channel=Throneful)). I want it to calculate the distance between the cursor object and the player and set the camera X to half of that value.

Hi,

Thank you for your question. Our forums are for questions about FMOD and its integrations. I would suggest looking into the [Unreal Engine Documentation](https://docs.unrealengine.com/5.1/en-US/blueprints-visual-scripting-in-unreal-engine/), or posting in their [Support Forums](https://forums.unrealengine.com/categories?tag=unreal-engine).

if you implement FMOD into our project, please post again with any questions you may have.

Hope this helps!
