Wiremod Camera Bot

This is a camera bot I made in GMod using wiremod. It is programmed to follow you and hover over your player's left shoulder and aim where you aim. For more info go to:
http://www.wiremod.com/forum/contraptions-saves/12096-camera-bot.html

IMPORTANT NOTE: If you are making this yourself, make sure you use snap on tool and the expression is in the middle! The balance needs to be perfect because I haven't set up the interval components of the PID system of the rotation control. That's why the camera is parented!

*****The latest expression is at the above *****website

Here is the version 1 expression:

@name CameraBot
@persist E:entity TargAlt Zpos Epos:vector2 XY:vector2 TargPos:vector2
@persist AngP AngY AngR
@trigger none
interval(20)
if(first()) {E = entity():isWeldedTo()}

Zpos = E:pos():z()
Epos = vec2(E:pos())

TargPos = vec2(owner():right())*50 *-1 + vec2(owner():pos())
if(!owner():isCrouch())
{
TargAlt = owner():pos():z() + 100
}
else
{ TargAlt = owner():pos():z() + 50
}

Z = (TargAlt+100 - Zpos) * 10 + $Zpos * -200
XY =(TargPos - Epos) * 10 + $Epos * -200

ApplyForce = vec(XY,Z)

ApplyAng = ang()

AngP = E:elevation(owner():aimPos())
ApplyAng = ApplyAng:setPitch(-AngP * 10 + $AngP * -1000)

AngY = E:bearing(owner():aimPos())
ApplyAng = ApplyAng:setYaw(-AngY * 10 + $AngY * -1000)

AngR = E:angles():roll()
ApplyAng = ApplyAng:setRoll(-AngR * 10 + $AngR * -1000)

E:applyForce(ApplyForce)
E:applyAngForce(ApplyAng)

how do you film in 1st person like that?

[Teh1337bix]

@TedThePenguin85 How would I not? Recorder, source or third party.

[cheatmaster702]

what do you use to record?

[Teh1337bix]

@cheatmaster702

Source recorder.

[Teh1337bix]

@Teh1337bix Sorry not source recorder, this one I used a ZDsoft recorder or something. But then I switched to source recorder.

dude know what be assome for space build build one with a life support then you could go almost any were

[Teh1337bix]

@asdfg2560 Nice idea. But it would only work inside a planet or space station, so if you're travelling through space in a spaceship you would have to turn it off and attach it to something and only bring it out on a planet.
