If you have any questions, just let me know

Assuming it's 2D, create 2 variables for the camera's position

(camera x)
(camera y)

To display objects on screen relative to the camera you can subtract the camera's position from the object's position:

go to x: ((object x) - (camera x)) y: ((object y) - (camera y))

You can make the camera move however you want by setting the camera position variables. For example, if you wanted it to follow the player, you could copy the player's position:

set [camera x v] to (player x)
set [camera y v] to (player y)

A camera that slowly moves to the player could be done in many ways. Here's a simple one:

change [camera x v] by (((player x) - (camera x)) * (0.1))
change [camera y v] by (((player y) - (camera y)) * (0.1))
