RE: Force player to look somewhere

I'll show an example, on how you can do it.

//Creating the function to call
First: Making the game call a function when the player enters a area.

// First function
First: When the player enters the area, i set the player inactive, so the that you can't move him around.
Second: After the players is set inactive, i make him look at a torch.
Third: I create a timer, that activates the player, so that him can move around again

//Second function
Activating the player

Here is the example:

void OnStart()
{
AddEntityCollideCallback("Player", "LookArea", "StareAtTourch", true, 1);
}


void StareAtTourch(string &in asParent, string &in asChild, int alState)
{
SetPlayerActive(false);
StartPlayerLookAt("torch_static01_1", 6.0f, 10.0f, "");
AddTimer("activate_player", 3, "activateplayer");
}


void activateplayer(string &in asTimer)
{
StopPlayerLookAt();
SetPlayerActive(true);
}

PS. 6.0f is the speed the camera turns around, and 10.0f is the maximum speed that the camera is aloud t oturn
