Important
Note

Angles are reversed in GTA:SA; 90 degrees would be East in the real world, but in GTA:SA 90 degrees is in fact West. North and South are still 0/360 and 180. To convert this, simply do 360 - angle.

Note

Angles returned when inside a vehicle is rarely correct. To get the correct facing angle while inside a vehicle, use GetVehicleZAngle.


Example Usage:

new Float:Angle, string[26];
GetPlayerFacingAngle(playerid, Angle);
format(string, sizeof(string), "Your facing angle: %0.2f", Angle);
SendClientMessage(playerid, 0xFFFFFFFF, string);
