*this script works like a charm with XAS and is perfect for those large maze like maps!

@Dark_falcao - thanks for sharing!

*just a thought, it would be sweet to use this with a character animation!

for example... let's say the actor acquires a 'bird' as an item... which enables this script.
you change the actor graphic to one with a bird on his shoulder (custom sprite)
now when you use it, the actor graphic changes (no bird on shoulder)
and there's a character sprite of a flying bird in the middle(when scrolling camera)
to present that the bird is your second pair of eyes. ^,^

Thanks gameface101

I like your idea, may be i gonna use it in my game jeje

I update the script to  v1.5 it have some new features

- You ca disable or enable the script wherever you want
- I fixed some crappy bugs

Enjoy

How can i fix it and if, then please tell me how. How do I fix so my character doesn't walk when I move around the camera?
