this code should be for my ally that is an A.I.
i want my ally to slowly point (not a snappy pointing) to the direction enemy if the enemy is with less than 20 units away from him...
how do i do this?
an algorithm will do :)

it's in 3D

If it is an humanoid, you can use a combination of entityyaw() (to check the humanoid orientation related to the other humanoid), then turn it with turnentity() or rotate it with rotateentity()...

The following will do the job. Play with the MinTurn to get the turning speed right.

Function TurnToFace( SourceEntity , DestinationEntity, MinTurn# )

  Local DY# = DeltaYaw( SourceEntity, DestinationEntity )
  If ABS( DY ) > MinTurn DY = MinTurn
  Turnentity AIentity, 0, DY, 0

End Function
