Hi, is it at all possible to force the player, in 1st person view, to rotate to a spawned character..... I know you can rotate the entity but I need to force the player to look at the entity I have spawned.

In the video below its OK if I look forward but if i'm looking down I miss seeing the spawned character...

Thanks.

I have a script that used to work for this, but a few GG versions ago TransportToIfUsed was changed so that the Player/Cam did not rotate to face the same direction as the object being transported to.

So there may be another way but haven't discovered it yet, maybe others have ...

I guess you could put a hidden entity behind where you want the player and spawn to that then the player would face the entity you want him to look at, will try that

you could do it the other way around and move the entity so that it is always in front of the player?
