SetAngle

Link to TES4 Construction Set Wiki: SetAngle.

A function included in the GECK version 1.1.0.36.

Description

Sets the angle of the calling object relative to the world on the specified axis (X, Y, or Z).

Syntax

[help]

[Object].SetAngle Axis:char{X, Y, Z} Angle:float

Example

ActorRef.SetAngle Z 270
Player.SetAngle X 28.8

Notes

When called on the player and actors:

• SetAngle Z rotates the player/actor as it rotates any object in game. It can be used to force the player or actor face a certain direction. E.g. In an exterior cells, "Player.SetAngle Z 45" forces the player face NE.

• Player and actors cannot be tilted forward, backward or sideways like most other objects, therefore changing their X and Y angles has no effect, with the following exception.

• SetAngle X on the player tilts the camera view up/down. It is possible to set the player's X angle beyond the limits of the mouse movement (-89 to 89). Note that the values are counterintuitive: negative angles force the player look up, positive angles, down.

• Some objects will 'forget' the X angle, setting it back to zero every few frames.
