If I have an object positioned like SetObjectPosition(Obj,-20,-10,40)
and the camera SetCameraPosition(1,0,0,0)

the object appears rotated I know this is correct for the way 3D appears but how
would I make it so as the object doesn't appear rotated when its not at the same
location as the camera

Ive been looking through the help commands and still not sure how

Correct always set your camera at 0,0,0 and move things around the camera

SetCameraLookAt maybe

If your talking about the apparent rotation due to perspective distortion, you would "fix" that by using an orthographic camera.

thanks Ortu SetCameraFOV(1,0) achieves that quite well
I tried it before but mustve had the wrong camera value or something as it didn't do anything
