scroll, scrollFactor and zoom

[Phil Mexico]

Hi everyone!

I'd like at one point of my game's gameplay cycle the camera go up, and also zoom out a little, to follow an object that get's thrown upwards and easily out of the screen borders.

This works fine, wether I do it via FlxG.camera.y, FlxG.camera.scroll.y and/or FlxG.camera.zoom.

My problem now is that I need the HUD elements as well as the background to not be affected by this.

The only thing that works so far is if I ONLY do the scroll, i. e. connect the scroll to the height of the thrown object.

Unfortunately, I can't find a way to have the HUD elements as well as the background not be affected by the zoom.

Does anyone have any ideas for me please?

Thanks!

You have to use a second camera for the HUD. Check the camera demo to see how it is done:
