Camera.setTransform() odd behavior (fixed)

Hello,

I am having problems with moving the camera. I am using the stock TGE 1.5.2 cam, with no modifications. By default, I have a third person view with my cam following the player. When the user interacts with an NPC, I move the camera to show the face of the NPC in question. To do this, I first calculate the desired position of the cam tby getting the eye transform pf the NPC through the C++ player method getEyeTransform. I then change the Z position to Z=Z-0.2; so that the cam moves back from the NPC. Then, through script, I send the matrix to the server using:

commandToServer ('MoveCameraToNPCPosition', %myMatrix);

Where %myMatrix contains: "XPos YPos ZPos XRot YRot ZRot AngAxisF". Then, server side, I have this following code:

function serverCmdMoveCameraToNPCPosition(%client, %myMatrix )
{
   %ang = getWord(%myMatrix , 6);
   %ang = mDegToRad (mRadToDeg (%ang) + 180);
   %client.camera.setTransform(%myMatrix);
   %client.setControlObject (%client.camera);
}

Then, when interaction with the NPC is done, the camera is restored to normal third person view by issuing a server commad. The server side code is:

function serverCmdMoveCameraToPlayerPosition (%client)
{
   %client.setControlObject( %client.player );
}

THIS WORKS PERFECTLY! The problem lies elsewhere.

I also give the user a possibility to switch to orbit mode. The server side code allowing to toggle orbitmode on/off is:

function serverCmdToggleOrbitMode(%client, %orbit_mode)
{
   if( %orbit_mode )
   {
      %client.setCameraObject( %client.camera );
      %client.setControlObject( %client.camera );
      %client.camera.setOrbitMode( %client.player, %client.player.getTransform(), 3, 5.8, 5.7, false );
   }
   else
   {
      %client.camera.setFlyMode();
      %client.setCameraObject( %client.player );
      %client.setControlObject( %client.player );
   }
}

THIS ALSO WORKS PERFECTLY!

Now for the problem: whenever I go into orbit mode, then back into third person mode again, the NPC cam doesn't work anymore! It keeps placing the camera at the back of the controlled player. The weird thing is, that the position matrix is exactly the same as before.

I've been trying to figure this out for 2 days and I can't seem to find the problem.

Please help!
