Use Hyper Triggers if you want it to center faster.

Did you use hyper triggers on both the order to move hte obs or just on the center screen and if so how many time did you "hyper it"?

Ugh. Here's some triggers:
Conditions:
-Always
Actions:
-Center Location "movie tracker" on Observer at anywhere
Conditions:
-Always
Actions:
-Center view at "movie tracker"
Make sure that you add the hypertriggers last. Use switches instead of always if you don't always want view centered on the obsv.

The main problem is you don't have any hyper triggers. (what you did isn't a hyper trigger) Also what is wrong witht hat is you only center the location once.
What you need to do is first make this trigger
Players:
-Players you want to have there veiw centered
Conditions:
-whatever
Actions:
-Center locaiton Observer on observer at anywhere
-Center Veiw at Observer
-Preserve Trigger
Then go here to learn how to make hyper triggers

Although i can't see it this is what he most likely did.
He had a unit on the left edge of the map going upward. He would center a really wide location on it (like 30x1). Then he would center veiw on that location.
Since the unit is on the side of the map the location is offset to where the center of the location is no longer over the unit. (locations can't move off of the map) Therefore when you center the veiw on the location it is in a differant place than the unit is. (the unit only controls the vertical speed).
I didn't really want to explain this to you because it is out of your scope. But if you understand it then good, Tuxcedo is one of the most talented mapmakers there is, if not the most talented. Trying to imiatate what he does in his maps is challenging even for a expert.
