I'm making sort of my first good cutscene (trying to at least) and theres one point where an actor nedds to just turn around in his spot. The problem is I don't know how to make an actor just turn. Its not AISetMoveFrame, but what is it?

There's a command spelled something like: AIsetlookposition(ai,position); Or else for turning maybe use frames?

Yes, there is a verb like that, I forget the exact parameters, but yeah, try that. Then for the second question, add this line to the Killed: message in the dj cog. MoveToFrame(thing, 1, ms); and don't forget to add the symbols.

SetThingRotVel(actor, VectorSet(x, y, z)); should work if you want the actor to turn and not just blink to position. To stop, use SetThingRotVel(actor, '0 0 0');.

Here's a little thing for number 2:

Code:

killed:
       If(GetSenderRef()==GetLocalPlayerThing)
       {
         print("You have been defeated in battle!");
       }
       Else if(GetSenderRef()==darkjedi)
       {
         print("Congratulations! You're the winner!")
         MoveToFrame(thing,1,speed);
       }
return;

Now this is just something I've picked out of the blue, so don't get too upset if it doesn't work!
