Examples

This can be used to make guards that look at the user when they get close. This can also be used to make UI or nametags that look at the user, or automated turrets.

In Reality, Swing and Twist are a more complicated subject, and is best to just change the MaxSwing and MaxTwist values only until you are comfortable or learn how the reference axis's work.
