What causing the camera delay

I don't want to stop it. I merely wish to understand. Is the cameraFollowSpeed? If so I can't see any visiable changes in speed from 5 to 500. So what is happening here?

Hi Ranvir,

The cameraFollowSpeed is how fast the camera moves to where the player is located. Lower numbers (less than 5) will make the camera take a lot of time to move, and higher numbers (greater than 5) will make the camera move much faster, to the point of being instantaneous movement that follows the player exactly.
