Errr it's not like real life... there is no 'point'. I forget what the north axis is though... x or y... Anyways, say the north south of a sim is the x axis. and north is 0 and south is 255. Just get whatever position you are on and set the y axis to be the same.

Ex:
vector lCurrentPos = llGetPos();
llLookAt(<0.0,lCurrentPos.y,lCurrentPos.z>,1.0);

That should work.

Or do something like
llSetStatus(STATUS_ROTATE_X|STATUS_ROTATE_Y|STATUS_ROTATE_Z,FALSE);
And set the rotation correctly. Then, assuming the object is physical, it won't change rotation.
