Notes

  • Do not confuse this function with GetAngle Z, which returns the heading angle of an object relative to the world.
  • The direction the calling reference is facing is considered 0 degrees.
  • Angles measured clockwise from 0 are positive, while angles measured counter-clockwise from 0 are negative.
  • In the example above, if the player is facing north and the object StrangeStatue is due west of the player, the returned value would be -90.
  • When you add this value to the calling references's current heading angle (Z angle), he will face the specified ObjectRef:
  set angle to Player.GetAngle Z + Player.GetHeadingAngle StrangeStatue
  Player.SetAngle Z angle
