Camera (class)

This class provides access to the SMBX cameras. NOTE: Only access this class in onCameraUpdate if you want the correct values or overwrite these values!

Static functions

Static Camera Functions (Overworld and level)
Function	Return values	Description
Camera.get()	table of Camera	Returns all Cameras

Instance functions

These fields and functions are part of Camera Objects and have to be called for that object. Trying to call them from the static Camera class will result in an error. Example (feel free to copy it into your lua file to see how it works):

local player1Camera = Camera.get()[1]
function onCameraUpdate()
    player1Camera.x = player1Camera.x + 200
end
