ok - so im using fxdismay which makes the geezer spin round 180 degrees like he heard summit.... but after, he warps back to his original direction...

how can i make him remain at 180 degrees from where he started after the switchmove?

depends...

but I gues (if this for some fance cutscene) one could make somekind of nifty workaround,
like a fast repeated setDir where the dir is:

setdir (_dir -2)
~0.08
setdir (_dir -1)
~0.08
setdir _dir


yanno ,  closing in  :)

well... what i've done is do the switchmove and then put a small delay before using the setdir command to 180....

so he spins, and then he remains there... but then he returns to looking at his original posistion (this time by moving)

aaaarg so annoying.
