Yes, springs in game physics engines typically have damping factors and other variables than just what's need to Hooke's law. For instance, Unity's Spring Join

Yes, springs in game physics engines typically have damping factors and other variables than just what's need to Hooke's law. For instance, Unity's Spring Joint: https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/class-SpringJoint.html https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/class-SpringJoint.html That being said if you don't model inertia of the spring (or at least what it's connected to, in this case the camera itself), would you have any oscillations? I thought inertia was a separate concept from Hooke's law, but it's been a while since I've touched high school style classical physics.
