NOTE: it is recommended to use manual coordinates if this function is used before onStart().
disable()	Will disable the camera effect.
onCamera(x,y)	Two required parameters. Input an X-scene and Y-scene coordinate and it will return a boolean on whether the point is currently inside the camera.
getCoord(side)	One required string parameter, either "top", "bottom", "left", "right". Will return the camera's "left" or "right" X-scene coordinates or the camera's "up" or "down" Y-scene coordinates.
