StartPlayerLookAt.

Maybe you should consider putting all your questions into one single thread?

You need to call the function MovePlayerHeadPos. This function is listed in the engine scripts on the wiki.

Nah. He doesn't want to reposition the head. He want the player to look around.

He'll need StartPlayerLookAt, StopPlayerLookAt and AddTimer. All of which are documented.

Well... you already suggested that and he said that that wasn't what he was looking for. I also partially misread that he wanted the players head to move horizontally (as in on the horizontal plane).

That's how you do it. He wants him to look left and right, so you place 2 areas, and use StartPlayerLookAt to make him face the areas.
