What exactly is the “OrbitCam” and what can you do with it?
The OrbitCam is a script that allows you to have a separate camera that can orbit a given point or
entity. This is very useful for certain occasions where the default camera is useless or where you
need some more control over the camera angle.
When the player is dead, you can no longer move the camera in the base game. This allows you to
change that.
You could also start a camera when a player is sitting on some benches where the default camera
would usually glitch into the player.

Support
If you want to further support my work, consider taking a look at my Tebex store. Maybe you can find something you would like
If by “interface” you mean the menu I use, that is actually from the ContextMenu which is another free script by me (literally just using some WIP graphics as the menu background as I work on its next update).
I just used it for the showcase as it is just so simple to use for things like that
Also, the interaction of clicking on an entity. I haven’t looked at the code yet, but I assume it involves a ray of some sorts, finding the closest entity within distance of a coord, etc etc. I love the idea of NUI interaction with game entities so seemlessly. End of rant. Great work.
Hello, is it possible to use this script to pretend that it is our soul that moves but not our body?
A bit like that! It reproduces the noclip without moving our character
Already answered this to a buddy of yours
But here for you as well:
Kind of, yea.
However you would need to move the “focus point” manually after starting the cam.
The camera will always look to the focus point. It can be a moving entity or a static point.
But you can move the point using another export as well.
If you are looking for a proper camera, check my CinematicCam [Release] Cinematic Cam
Though while it still works, it allows for flying through walls etc. Not sure if that is what you are looking for
