I Dont think thats possible 2 do that, why do u want a key 4 that instead of using the mouse?
The only thing that occurs 2 me would be to edit the zoom function so the camera is turning back, but iam not expert.

you'll need to be more specific... do you want the player to still be able to move while looking behind? is it third or first person? would you want the "look back" going to take up the entire screen or just part of it?

osiem80 yes. The player should be able to look behind when going forward. He should be able to check if he chasing by the killer. (With first person camera.) This script didn't help, nevertheless thanks.

Lol, quite agree... If I was as good as a professional coder I'd say one of us is in the wrong job :p

Ceri, that would probably be under CameraAngle
Probably would be quite easy to just place a script that gets
PlayerAngle+ 180 while any particular key is being held down.
And then put that value into CameraAngle.

This CameraAngle vs PlayerAngle really put a wrench into my attempts to make
a swimming script. I didn't know there was a PlayerAngle separate from
CameraAngle because I asked the wrong questions back then!!!!! LOL

I might find a minute to test if my theory holds any beans!

Red-necked together, as usual.

You can't hold walk or run forward at the same time as manipulating
the cameras! So we put something else in...
Hold 'R' to look at reverse and you will run looking backard... LOL
