Hi all,
How do I tell whether a vector is to the left or the right of an object? I'm sure I'm missing a cunning trick here.
Thanks in advance.

Well, it depends on what you mean by "left" and "right" - to the left and right of the forward axis, on the X and Y planes?

On the X-Y plane. The object will have its z axis pointing straight up and an arbatory rotation around the z axis. I just want to know whether the object should rotate clockwise or anticlockwise t turn towards the object. I assumed it would be simple, but I seemed to be getting bogged down in rotations.
I know I can make it turn with llLookAt and variations, but which way is it turning?
