Hey. What's up? Trying to get GG lua to pull up the angles of [e-1] or (e-1).
It seems to be okay getting the positions of the previous entity (e) value,
but angles no luck. Need the one before the currently scripted entity.

Tried;

GetEntityAngleX (e-1)
GetEntityAngleX ( olde[e] ) ------------ olde[e] = e-1
GetObjectAngleX ( g_Entity[e-1]['obj'] )

I get zero sometimes and nil often.

GetEntityAngleX (e-1) should be fine, you should check if the entity exists before hand though and it's possible it doesn't work for static objects? i'm not sure

@ GubbyBlips
Try:

+ Code Snippet

ent_angles = {}

function getting_idangles_init(e)
end

function getting_idangles_main(e)

	for i = 1,	g_EntityElementMax,1 do
			ent_angles[i] = {Ax=0,Ay=0,Az=0}
			ent_angles[i].Ax = GetEntityAngleX ( i ) 
			ent_angles[i].Ay = GetEntityAngleY ( i )
                       ent_angles[i].Az = GetEntityAngleZ ( i )
	end

	a = ent_angles[e+1].Ax
	
	PromptDuration(a,3000)

end

Edit: Fixing code.
