======Move Camera Over Time======

Moves the camera to the specified (X,Y,Z) [[coordinate]] or named [[camera_positions|camera position]] over a duration of time (in seconds). A target to aim the camera towards can optionally be specified. If using a [[camera_positions|camera position]] for the destination, this "look at target" will override the angle.
