  A GameCamera2D will set its own position each frame - you won't be able to separately move it through Timeline.

  Remove the GameCamera2D component, and attach AC's "Basic Camera" component (in the "Add Component" menu, choose "Adventure Creator -> Camera -> Basic Camera". That will allow you to move it, but also reference it in Timeline "Main Camera" tracks / "Camera: Switch" Actions.

  This works!

  What's the recommended way to get Narration text into Timelines? E.g. the AC kind where the subtitle is pinned to the bottom of the camera frame even when the camera is moving.

  Seperately, I added a Speech Track (player line checked), and even though it displays in the Timeline preview, it doesn't show up Game. I'm not sure if I need to add a Game Object?

  Speech and Narration should both handle the same in Timeline as they do in regular Speech Actions.

  For Narration that appears separately in the UI, create a line without a Speaker, and have a new Subtitles menu that has its For speakers of type property set to Narration Only.

  No, you shouldn't need any other objects so long as the Timeline itself is attached to a Playable Director in the scene.

  Do you get any relted messages in the Console, and can you share uncropped screenshots of the Timeline and what happens when it should play?
