How would you go about making a ped face the player when near them. Right now I am just using something like this:

if (Game.LocalPlayer.Character.DistanceTo(witness.Position) < 30f)
   {
      witness.Face(Game.LocalPlayer.Character.Position);
   }

But this makes them spin on a dime and looks very unnatural. What's the best way to achieve this? 

 

One other question, do you have to explicitly set a cop model as a cop? I have a panic button type callout that spawns s_m_y_cop_01 but sometimes the cop will shoot at the player and the player can arrest the cop. I have the cop and the player in the same relationship group.

Knew I was missing something simple. Thank you!
