I'm working on a top down project and I was wondering how would I get the object to rotate depending on where the mouse is on screen.

Check out the "Atanfull" command. I use Atanfull to rotate all sorts of 2D shapes towards other 2D points.

I tried the code but something didn't work quite right... I want the object to face the mouse and rotate depending on where it is.
