Ok so im trying to make a human face a player ive tried a few methods like:
Screenshot - e3fc6f9fac59cd86f39aaecfc1588534 - Gyazo ,
and also subtracting 1 rotation vector from another
and they haven’t worked,
currently im updating were the human entity is looking every 0.1 seconds ( 100 milliseconds )
Help :frowning:
p.s. i have read the docs and theres no method like there was in spigot ( entity.setDirection )

Yes there is, it’s entity.setTransform().

i set the transform to what?

@pie_flavor No. Transform uses Euler angles for rotation, and is not equivalent to entity.setDirection(...).

@NoOneYouKnow Try human.lookAt(player.getPosition())
