Joerg, Thanks for your quick answer, but I already mentioned that I tried placing the viewplatform in a transformgroup beneath the target object (which is IMHO probably the 'cleanest' solution). This still gave problems. I had to rewrite a lot of code, so maybe I forgot something. I will take a good look at the code again.
About the single Behavior that updates all your objects: which WakeupCriterion did you use? I'm getting my position updates via a TCP InputStream.
