Like A_Face but with an arbitrary vector3 instead of an actor.
(Does something like this already exist? I feel like this has been discussed before but I see nothing on the ZScript actor function list on the wiki)
A_FacePosition

Re: A_FacePosition
Right, I think that's how I eventually did it last time!
Still would be nice to have a single step for something like this though, since this would be quite a few additional steps subtracting coords and doing the vectorangle for both x/y and xy/z.
(Right now the most "obvious" way to get around this for a DECORATE user is to create an actor at the desired spot and call A_Face, which is very computationally expensive for what we're doing but by far the most convenient and foolproof thing to write.)
