Detecting where the object is looking at - SilentSoul - 25.12.2014

Hello, i am trying to create a dynamic canon system, it rotates with your screen movement by using GetPlayerCameraFrontVector and SetDynamicObjectRot and i am using a timer to update it, it works pretty fine, but my problem now how to detect where the object is looking at to create explosions or missiles.

EDIT: Fixed, i have the calculated the player camera postion with camera front vector together, then i multiplied them by the distance i wanted. it works fine.

            Float:x,Float:y,Float:z,
            Float:x2,Float:y2,Float:z2;
            GetPlayerCameraPos(playerid, x,y,z);
            GetPlayerCameraFrontVector(playerid, x2,y2,z2);
            CreateExplosion(x+x2*20, y+y2*20, z+z2*20, 3, 5.0);//note *20 is the distance
