Force a player to watch a direction

[agentmad007]

Hi ,

is it possible to force a player watching the north , south or whatever by script at end of my thread ?

TY

I have no idea if there is a specific script for this, but what I would try is something like this:

Code: Select all

local.triglook = spawn trigger_multiple
local.triglook.origin = ( xxx xxx xxx)
local.triglook setsize ( -xxx -xxx -xxx )
local.triglook setthread look

look:

local.player = parm.other
local.player tele local.player.origin ( 0 90 0)

end

I believe that is how you write the tele script, but I'm not entirely sure.
That should make them look in a certain direction whenever they land on a certain spot. Hope this helps.

you can use,

Code: Select all

local.player.viewangles = ( 0 0 0 )  /*set to what angles you want*/

The player will still beable to move there view after its changed, not sure on how you would freeze the view once its changed.

I think makeing the player notsolid will freeze him . You can also use face for this I belive .

thx for your replies .

local.player.viewangles = ( 0 0 0 ) /*set to what angles you want*/

I think thats what i want .Just to set the teleported player view right in front.Thx i will try when compile will be finished.

I tested out the viewangles script and it worked just fine for me.

[bdbodger]

Face is about the same as viewangles

face( Vector angles )


Force angles to specified vector

$player face ( 0 30 0 )

something like that I don't use it much just thought I's mention it I don't know why .
