# TurnEntity entity,pitch#,yaw#,roll#,[,global]

# Parameters

entity - name of entity to be rotated pitch# - angle in degrees that entity will be pitched yaw# - angle in degrees that entity will be yawed roll# - angle in degrees that entity will be rolled global (optional) -

# Description

Turns an entity relative to its current orientation. Pitch is the same as the x angle of an entity, and is equivalent to tilting forward/backwards. Yaw is the same as the y angle of an entity, and is equivalent to turning left/right. Roll is the same as the z angle of an entity, and is equivalent to tilting left/right.
