Get Instances to face towards locator

[m_lattner]

Hello everybody,

I would like to make a little tool that allows me to scatter some kind of geometry over a plane, but I would like to control the rotation of each instance in such a way that each of the objects follows some type of controller (in this case, the locator). 

I found the create_arrow_strands node, with which I am able to visualize the sort of behavior, but I can't come up with a solution to mimic this behavior with the instanced geometry.

I would really appreciate any sort of lead towards a viable solution.

There are a few ways to do this, here is one way. You need to add the point orientation attribute which is a vector 4, then the instance will read that and react accordingly.

Thank you so much, that is exactly what i was looking for!
