I need move unity3d camera to position in which camera will cover all selected object. I mean position in which all selected points will be inside camera frustrum. How to calculate camera position?
Like in this example:

What did you try so far? Do you have some code to show? – Ludovic Feltz Apr 13 '17 at 11:56

It's not the problem of code. It's just algorithmic problem. I don't know how to calculate camera position if I have points which have to be in frustrum. Maybe I need formula of pyramid which contain selected points – Dmtriy Ilchenko Apr 13 '17 at 11:57

I have tried to use screen (camera flat coordinates) positions of this points. – Dmtriy Ilchenko Apr 13 '17 at 11:59

So where is yours? What is your problem. there is a lot of position you camera can be to see all your selected points. For example just set your camera position very far from all your point should do the trick – Ludovic Feltz Apr 13 '17 at 12:00

I mean position in which my objects will be on the borders of camera frustrum – Dmtriy Ilchenko Apr 13 '17 at 12:09

In runtime camera shold be scaled and moved into the closest point where it covers all selected points. For example, I have camera with Field of view - 60 degrees and I need to move it to the points where it will cover all needed points. – Dmtriy Ilchenko Apr 13 '17 at 12:12

Put all the objects in an array, than compare the distance between all of them and take the biggest one.
Then you just have to make a calculation and apply that to your camera fov/range so that it covers all the objects.
I already made something like this before this way in Unity 2D, so it should be possible in Unity 3D. The problem is that I couldn't find the source of the Unity project but I did found a game exe.
Link to zip (I will update this if I can find the project)

"then you just have to make a calculation and apply that to your camera fov/range so that it covers all the objects." - Hah. That is think I asked about – Dmtriy Ilchenko Apr 13 '17 at 12:54

With the calculation I mean the correction. ` 2D: Camera.main.orthographicSize = MaxDistanceInBlocks; 3D: Camera.main.fieldOfView = MaxDistanceInBlocks; ` – NLxDoDge Apr 13 '17 at 12:59
