| Member | Signature | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `event` | `event: string` | The trigger volume's `event` name from the scene. |

## Example

The tested fixture `fixtures/recipes/jump-pad-and-elevator/scenes/behaviors/camera-zone.ts`.

```ts
import type { Behavior } from "@argus/api"

/**
 * A trigger volume that retunes the camera while the player is inside it.
 *
 * The engine has no camera-zone concept and needs none: a volume, a `trigger` component and this.
 * Here the player's behaviour owns the camera (it re-sends its params when the view is turned), so
 * the zone tells it what to change rather than calling `ctx.camera.set` itself. In a scene where
 * nothing else writes the camera, the zone can call `ctx.camera.set(kind, params)` directly.
 */

  /** `ctx.camera.set` params to merge in on the way in, and on the way out. */

export default {

    if (params) ctx.events.emit("camera-zone", { target: trigger.other.id, params })
  },
