You can use <i>setDir</i> to change the direction of the attached object. The direction is relative to the object you attach it to, so <i>setDir 180</i> won't point to the south but to the rear of the object you attach it to.


Use <i>setPos</i> to synchronize the direction of the object in a network game.
Example code:
<code>
Object setDir 180;
Object setpos getpos Object;</code>

The direction is relative to the object you attach it to, so setDir 180 won't point to the south but to the rear of the object you attach it to.
