Three.js: OrbitControl not working when camera position at 0,0,0

[kgoedecke]

Description of the problem

When I try to use OrbitControl just like in the examples provided, it only seems to work when i set camera.position to something other than 0,0,0. No events are being triggered but when I add camera.position.set(0, 0, 10); to my code then it suddenly starts to work.

You cannot set controls.target and camera.position to the same value.

Yep, check out this example as an orientation.
