Follow target on one axis only?

[JamesLoyMartin]

First, I love Phantom Camera. Thanks for making it!

So is there a way to follow the follow_target along only one axis and not both x and y?
I'm trying to follow the player only along the x axis at certain times.

Specifically, I want the camera to 'platform snap', meaning the camera does not move on the Y axis when the character is jumping in the air, but only when he is on the ground. Used in Super Mario World and Donkey Kong Country 2 onwards.

Here is an example of how i achieved platform snapping with phantom camera so far:

you can see the camera follow_target at the top.

My solution was to have the phantom camera follow a different target (the triangle at the player's feet) when the player jumps, then switch the follow_target back to the player when he lands.

It looks nice in the GIF, but really there is a noticeable one frame pause when switching the follow_target back and forth as the other target following the player lags behind one physics frame. (I'm simply doing position.x = player.position.x in physics process for lack of a better way to follow the player, but it lags a frame.)

Ideally, I'd like to just always follow the player and disable following along the y axis instead of switching follow_target to avoid the lag. Is that possible or is there another approach you would recommend?

Thank you!
