    I read this in the changelog of the new Gmod version:

    Does this mean that lua coders can now make something rotate x degrees? (which is a servo AFAIK)

    That means you can rotate..a vector. Vectors are geometric 'lines', which have a direction, an origin, and an extremity. Nothing related to degrees, I'm afraid.

    However, servo's should be possible already. :\ You have everything you need...Just need to be a good coder. :/

    i already have made the servo i just am screwed on making the stool but will look into it today its because i dont know how to do axis constraints to get the servo fixed to what you shot.

    would be great i just need to do this im just confused as to how the lua would go.
    Spawn the servo - got this cause its easy
    Place it where the trace hit - think this works as the code for my other tools does it.
    Find the point the trace hit and the point on the servo right next to it - havent done this
    Put and axis between them - completely failed here.
