[Pawn] Take the angle of a position

[Marllun]

I would like to know how I get the angle of an X, Y,?Z coordinate, To use for example in the function SetPlayerFacingAngle


Example:

stock Float:GetAnglePos(Float:x, Float:y, Float:z) {
?Code..
return angle;
}

Do you mean the angle between some point?and the position of the player?

I guess you want this

I want to make the player turn the angle to a specific position.



This function does not exist in the SAMP Native functions, please do not come with GetPlayerFacingAngle, SetCameraBehindPlayer.

You will have to edit the function so you have to enter the x, y and z coordinates instead of playerid (faceplayerid).

I know the function was not created by you, but still ...
Wtf, is all this stuff done with floatsub, floatadd and such. None of that is needed as atan2 already takes into account the sign of both arguments in order to determine the quadrant.

This is all that's needed:

PHP Code:

PlayerFacePosition(playerid, Float:x, Float:y)
{
    new Float:px, Float:py, Float:pz;
    GetPlayerPos(playerid, px, py, pz);

    new Float:angle = atan2(y - py, x - px);
    SetPlayerFacingAngle(playerid, angle - 90.0); 
} 


The -90.0 is to account for the weird GTA angle orientation. The actual angle between the 2 points is without this subtraction.
