BUT... I can't find it anywhere.

In HL2, I want to create a bank of monitors hooked up to individual cameras.... WHICH MOVE BACK AND FORTH like reg security cams.

Now I know how to create a monitor and link it to a camera, but the issue is this.....

Is it func_rotating that I use as a parent for the cameras???

Well I hope you realise you can't have multiple screens tied to different cameras. Only one can be used or the other monitors just display the same thing.

For the camera's you just go to properties and choose the parent which is the rotating yes.

So is there a way to SWITCH cameras? Like have 4 cams, 1 monitor.... switch between them?

Yes there is because if you remember in HL2 at the Nova Prospect prison you can watch different things going on by pressing 'e' on the one monitor.

Lemme find an example:
