Hi there,

I know there are commands currently to rotate and entity but is there any way to rotate the player or to change their current angle?

Here's a workaround I've used before.
You could transport the player to another entity, the player will transport looking in the same direction as the entity's forward face. So you just rotate that entity forward face in the direction you want the player to face.

The next version of GG has this capability. That workaround used to work but doesn't at the moment. Cheers.

Thanks cybernescence,
I had to test it and see, and it is not working anymore, as you said.
Even in the current beta version, for me.
Cheers

Will TransportToFreezePosition() also apply the angle or is there a separate TransportToFreezeAngle() function as well?
