Hi, I'm a newbie here:) How can I control the camera, for example, I want to set the eye at (10,2,3), and look at the point (20,3,20)?

cam=CreateCamera()
PositionEntity cam,10,2,3

PositionEntity target,20,3,20

model=CreateCube(target)
EntityFX model,1
reference=CreateCube()
ScaleEntity reference,5,.1,5
PositionEntity reference,20,1,20 

base=90

While Not KeyDown(1)

If KeyDown(57)
base=base+1 : If base>360 Then base=base-360
PositionEntity target,20+(Cos(base)*1.5),3,20
EndIf


PointEntity cam,target
