I have a mesh and animate its position, using the method from the docs . I would like the mesh to face the same direction of the path. Here is the current behavior: How can I rotate the mesh to face the next point? Note that the points are all 1 unit apart.

Sorry for all of the replies - the solution to get the correct sign is multiplying the y output by the sign of diff.x: function getRotation(origin, target){ let diff = target.subtract(origin), distance = Math.sqrt(diff.x**2 + diff.y**2 + diff.z**2), phi = Math.acos(diff.z / distance) ||…
