Hey everyone 
I've been editing a map for a few days now and at the start my character is supposed to wake up in bed. For a while I had him use the SetPlayerCrouching(true) function and the screen fades in from white to the flashback of Daniel talking with that guy about his nightmares. But people don't normally wake up sitting upright... so how do I change the camera position? I tried MovePlayerHeadPos but I don't think i'm doing it right... I have it set so when "Player" collides with a certain script area and I have no idea what to set for the axes if I don't want it to move left and right( I tried "", and "0". Both gave me errors) Every way I've tried to set it I get FATAL ERROR. Could someone explain how to use this function properly? I've never learned any programming languages and I just started on this one like 4 days ago.
tl;dr: How do I properly set the camera height to lower than the default? Preferably toggle-able (with "Player" colliding with an area).
EDIT: I am trying to set up timers. I made a timer go off and you look at the object I specified, but the next timer in the list to stop looking at it wont go off. If anybody is willing to help just ask me to put up the section of the timers I have and I will. Thanks in advance!
