i am going for a function like this:

function rotate_towards_object(start_X, start_Y, object_X as float, object_Y as float)

returns: (-) value if the entity pointing toward the object should rotate left, (+) if it should rotate right, 0 if it is on target

if anybody could help with the trigonometry i would appreciate it

Use atanfull() to calculate the angle between objects.

There's a version of this in the useful community functions project (stickier at the top of this forum).


this.mess = abs(sin(times#))
