PointEntity(a, b, 2)

[L B]

If b.Position.Y is higher than a.Position.Y, the orientation of a becomes the opposite (±180) from what it is supposed to be pointing.

What am I doing wrong? Is this normal behaviour?

When you want create effect which looks like "LookAt", use align to forward direction [Z axis] - PointEntity(a, b, 3,1,0)

I actually found the problem. It's in the documentation.

Apparently, 2 is for the Z axis, not the Y one.

 

I found out using 0 works perfectly, although it isn't even a documented axis. Bug report here Josh?

I am seeing PointEntity work just like described in the wiki for models and meshes... but for mesh primitives, like CreateCube(), and phy bodies, it doesn't seem to matter which axis you use in the PointEntity command; it always gives the same final rotation.

Actually PointEntity() is all messed up... doesn't work correctly for models, meshes, primitive meshes, primitive phybodies... there is definitely something wrong with the command...
