Ok, so..

Usually, I use GetPlayerFacingAngle to get a players heading, I face easterly, and it returns 90.0, which is correct.
However, today, it says 270.0 when I face easterly, and 90.0 when I face westerly. No code change, and it's not a problem with my code.

pawn Code:

new Float:Angle;
GetPlayerFacingAngle(playerid, Angle);
format(str, sizeof(str), "Your heading is: %f", Angle);
SendClientMessage(playerid, 0xFFFFFFFF, str);

360.0/0.0 is North. 90.0 is East. 180.0 is South. 270.0 is West.

Why does it say 270.0 is East, and 90.0 is West?

First of all, You're the retarded one.

Philldog, you are wrong.

BATAD, I know how to use it, but it returns the wrong angle. If I face east it should say I'm heading 90.0, not 270.0, and vise versa.

Hm it works fine for me.
Dont know if this would make any difference (probably wont) but worth a try

pawn Code:

new Float:Angle;
GetPlayerFacingAngle(playerid, Float:Angle);
format(str, sizeof(str), "Your heading is: %f", Float:Angle);
SendClientMessage(playerid, 0xFFFFFFFF, str);

^.^ Troll mode de-activated was just messing with Joe.

That doesn't change anything, Wesley.

When you face EAST, does it say 270 or 90? Mine says 270 and it SHOULD say 90.

[Babul]

its just the direction (counterclockwise) a player facing angle gets returned. imagine watching the player from below the map, then its obvious: the player/vehicle rotations are "left handed"
to obtain the correct angle, simply use -angle
