Camera move settings
Every setting on a Camera Move's panel, band by band, in the panel's own words: what each does and what a new one starts at.
Every setting on a Camera Move's panel, in the order the panel shows them. Generated from Blendable Fixed Angles and Blendshot (1.4.0, in development) in Unreal Engine 5.8.3, so it lists exactly what that version has. For what the settings add up to, read Camera moves.

On The Way#
Takes#
The value on the line: how long the move takes: Over A Time is the same time however long the path is, and At A Speed travels it at a speed, so a longer path takes longer. Choices: Over A Time, At A Speed. Starts at Over A Time.
| Setting | What it does | Starts at |
|---|---|---|
| Time (s) | How long the whole path takes, in seconds. A change turned back part way returns over its share of it. At least 0.05. | 2 s |
| Speed (cm/s) | How fast the camera goes along the path, in cm/s, on average: the ease starts and ends slower than this and passes it in the middle. At least 1. | 800 cm/s |
| Ease | How the camera gathers speed and slows along the path. Ease In-Out leaves and arrives gently. Choices: Linear, Ease In, Ease Out, Ease In-Out, Custom Curve. | Ease In-Out |
| Custom Ease | Your own shape for the ease, from 0 to 1 over the move's time, used when Ease is Custom Curve. | none |
Looks#
The value on the line: which way the camera looks on the way: turning from shot to shot, at the player, along the path, or at an actor of your choosing. Choices: From Shot To Shot, At The Player, Along The Path, At An Actor. Starts at At The Player.
| Setting | What it does | Starts at |
|---|---|---|
| Look At | The actor the camera keeps in the middle of the shot when Looks is At An Actor. Empty, it looks at the player. | none |
| Aim At Height (cm) | How far above the player's position the camera looks, in cm: about the chest on a standard character. | 50 cm |
| Turns Over (%) | How much of the move, at each end, the camera takes to turn off the first shot's aim and into the second's, in percent. 0 turns at once. From 0 to 50. | 25% |
