Smooth Camera follow for 2D platformer game

Questions & Answers
1

Hey Guys,

I am working on a clasical 2D platformer game somethig similar to Mario Bros. The game is working fine. Camera follows the player smoothly. But when I jump the camera still follows the player. What I want is the camera to wait until the player is above its 1/2.
I want the camera to follow the player on the X axis smoothly and constantly - that is working fine. But on the Y axis I want the camera to wait and as soon as the player touches more than 1/2 of the camera range then change the transform of the camera on the Y axis exactly like Mario Bros.

Here is my simple smooth follow script that follows the player all the time:

	public float dampTime = 0.25f;
	private Vector3 velocity = Vector3.zero;
	public Transform target;

	void Update () 
	{
		if (target.position.x > 0)
		{
			Vector3 point = camera.WorldToViewportPoint(target.position);
			Vector3 delta = target.position - camera.ViewportToWorldPoint(new Vector3(0.3f, 0.4f, point.z));
			Vector3 destination = transform.position + delta;
			transform.position = Vector3.SmoothDamp(transform.position, destination, ref velocity, dampTime);
		}
	}

Use for smooth cam Mathf.Lerp

public var cameraObj : GameObject;
public var specificVector : Vector3;
public var smoothSpeed : float;

function Start () { 
  cameraObj = GameObject.FindGameObjectWithTag("MainCam");
}

function Update () {
  specificVector = Vector3(transform.position.x, transform.position.y, cameraObj.transform.position.z);
  cameraObj.transform.position = Vector3.Lerp(cameraObj.transform.position, specificVector, smooth * Time.deltaTime);
}
