Teleported Player View Angle

**own3mall** · October 19th, 2012, 01:53 AM

Is it possible to change a player's view angle after they have been teleported by a teleporter?

This doesn't seem to work:

Code:

local.player tele ( 1406.406 1122.747 167.154 )
local.player.angle = 183.461

It seems that a player faces the same direction he took the teleporter in when appearing at his final destination. Is there a way to change this?

viewangle or angle?

local.player.viewangles = ()
//changes his actual camera angles not the body
but I think you might mean angle?

try

local.player.angles = ( 0 0 0 )

Yeah, I just want to rotate his body so he's looking the right way when he comes out of the teleporter.

So, it's just:

Code:

local.player.angles = ( 0 0 0 )

And it takes 3 params? I can get these from coord right? EZ Spawner spawns stuff only using 1 angle value like I did in my code that I tried that didn't work? Hmm, I'll give it a try. Thanks!

wouldnt you change the middle one ?? Other two are the other axis's

so local.player.angles = ( 0 183.461 0 )

Well its either my memory is wrong or EZ spawn-thing is wrong, seeming how angle didnt work for you, I'm going to stick with..try angles

but I seem to remember yaw, roll ,pitch is actually wrong in mohaa? right? :S and you need to change roll or maybe pitch instead of yaw... and angle affects yaw..I think?

but anyway...its local.player.angles= (vector)

and learn to not use Ez spawner thing...its wrong.
.. alliteratively you could use the TurnTo and turn functions...which work I'm sure.

edit: my advicve is..change each and see what happens!!!!!

Hey Elgan,

The below code doesn't work, and I don't know why. The angle is completely ignored once a player is teleported. How would I use the TurnTo and turn functions? Do you have an example? That would be much appreciated, as I've never heard of these commands lol

Code:

endtriggeral:
while(1)
{
$endtrgal waittill trigger
if(parm.other.dmteam == allies) 
  { 
   local.player = parm.other 
   local.player tele ( 3561.92 1193.11 564.13 )
   local.player.angle = ( 4.53 -93.14 0.00 ) 
   level.alliesscore++
   thread Scorethread
   iprintlnbold "Allies Score !"
   if(level.resetals == 1)
	{
   	level.resetals = 0
	}
  }
wait .5
}
end

Hi Own 'em all,

Why not just use the "FACE" command instead of viewangles?

Like so:

local.player tele ( 3561.92 1193.11 564.13 )
local.player face ( 4.53 -93.14 0.00 )

Or have you tried it already and it didn't work?

Face worked for me. Angles did not. Thanks guys! I never knew about the face command...
