How to filter the entities with the angle you need to rotate to the entities like in killaura?

[Andy718811]

Here is the code I tried, but it didn't work as I wished.

x_player = player.getX();
y_player = player.getY();
z_player = player.getZ();
x = game.entities.getX(entity_id);
y = game.entities.getY(entity_id);
z = game.entities.getZ(entity_id);


float dx = x - x_player;
float dz = z - z_player;

float yaw = player.getYRot();
yaw = ((yaw + 180) % 360 + 360) % 360 - 180;

float targetYaw = math.degrees.atan2(dz, dx); 
float diff = targetYaw - yaw;

diff = ((diff % 360) + 360) % 360;
if (diff > 180) diff -= 360;


if (math.abs(diff) > 70) {
  continue;
}

Bro, I can't debug code for you. Just learn how to do it yourself. I added this for status overlay script:

{
    let entity_id = 2; // id of entity i get in advance
    let x_player = player.getX();
    let y_player = player.getY();
    let z_player = player.getZ();
    let x = game.entities.getX(entity_id);
    let y = game.entities.getY(entity_id);
    let z = game.entities.getZ(entity_id);

    float dx = x - x_player;
    float dz = z - z_player;

    float yaw = player.getYRot();
    yaw = ((yaw + 180) % 360 + 360) % 360 - 180;

    float targetYaw = math.degrees.atan2(dz, dx) - 90; // i noticed calculated angle is 90 degrees bigger, so I subtract 90
    float diff = targetYaw - yaw;

    diff = ((diff % 360) + 360) % 360;
    if (diff > 180) diff -= 360;

    /*if (math.abs(diff) > 70) {
        continue;
    }*/
    overlay.center();
    overlay.middle();
    overlay.add(diff.toStandardString(3));
}

Thak you, after some try, I found the reason it failed is because I should trun the angle to between 0 to 360 degree. After some modification, it worked!
