Piloting objects with cameras with relative offsets

Piloting objects with cameras with relative offset…
…is not working correctly.

The object will fly off in seemingly random distances.

To replicate:

  1. Create an actor (e.g. a cube)
  2. Add a camera component
  3. Add a relative offset to the camera component
  4. Right click the actor and select pilot
  5. Leftclick and hold on the editor viewport to move the actor around
  6. See that this is indeed undesired behaviour

Hi again!

I furthermore happended to notice that movements done via piloting are currently not editor transactions. Meaning that they cannot be undone with Ctrl+Z etc.

That should also be a separate bug report I guess.

Cheers
