You would be better using

POINT OBJECT 2, object position x(7),object position y(7),object position z(7)

Think about it. At one point, they will be facing the same direction.

^ 7
|


^ 2
|

If you now rotate object 7 90 degrees, and set the orientation of object 7 to match, they are side by side, not one pointing towards the other.

-> 7

-> 2

Here's one of the simplest ways of doing it
i was unsure on if you got dbpro or dbc. So here you got both versions You control the player on the arrow keys. Then the other box will follow you. :

dbpro version:


dbc version:
