How could I script a Chase Camera in Kismet?

[edx76]

Hi there,
Is there a simple (or complicated) way to script a Chase Camera in Kismet?
I mean a camera like in Ratchet & Clank, Medievil 2, and such plateform or adventure/action games.
Seems that this type of cam doesn't rotate according to the player rotation and so, I don't see which network of nodes I should build.
Any help appreciated.

You can attach a camera to the player via kismet, and place that camera anywhere you please. In this example the camera is placed beside the character spawn and the result is a side-scroller style view, but you can place it anywhere.

(note: there's a lot of problems with setting up the camera in kismet. Scripting is a more reliable way to setup the camera

Hi Max Power, thanks for your reply.
I've already set this kind of cam in Kismet but it's not exactly what I want because using your example, the cam will always rotate around the pawn as soon as he rotates. I would like to avoid this as well as a 3D iso cam which never rotates.
If you look at a game like Ratchet and Clank, for example, the camera doesn't always rotate around the character as soon as he rotates but the cam always follows him, "purchase" him (So I think that's why it's called a Chase cam? Don't know, maybe... english is not my native language).
