//  This is an example script that demonstrates use of the Camera class's lookAt(), keepLookingAt(), and stopLookingAt()
//  features.
//
//  To use the script, click on a entity, and the camera will switch into independent mode and fix it's lookAt on the point
//  on the face of the entity that you clicked. Click again and it will stop looking at that point. While in this fixed mode
//  you can use the arrow keys to change the position of the camera.
