Summary0001971: "set-camera-host"-sexp does not work as described
DescriptionI tried to use the "set-camera-host"-sexp to attach the camera to a Hercules Mk II's weapons subsystem in an in-game cutscence (WIP attached below).
The output was entirely different from the what the sexp was programmed to be: The camera is now suck where the center of the model is set - it appears as if the second argument defining the subsystem to which the camera should be attached does not do anything at all...

Build used: 3.6.10 release build
Additional InformationThe mission attached is a simple cutscene with just two steps of command briefing, two events to set-up the camera and three alternative versions for camera movement of which two are disabled [1) set camera host; 2) set camera position with coordinates relative to the fighter; 3) set camera position used for camera movement along WP path].
I left the alternative solutions in so you can see what I'm quite aiming for...

This SEXP only works with modeled subsystems that have a submodel assigned. If this really is a required thing submit a feature request.
