MotS got something nice but JK needs a way around it.

MotS:GetThingJointAngle(player, neckNode);
//Forgot what the neckNode was but look in the eweb cog or something and it should be there somewhere.

JK:
thing stuff local
template temp=ghost local
vector lookVector local

stuff = FireProjectile(player, temp, -1, -1, '0 0.01 0', '0 0 0', 0, 0, 0, 0);
lookVector = VectorNorm(VectorSub(GetThingPos(stuff), GetThingPos(player)));
DestroyThing(stuff);

should do good.
