Calculate location based on pitch

Hi there,

I'm kinda new to vectors but I'm really strugling with them. What I want to make is that I can teleport a player to another player, but not really on the same location is that player but to the side of them. So that they will stand next to each other and not inside each other. Can someone explain to me how I can achieve this?

 

Ciaranlol, I would just change the teleport location a block more x or something to that effect.

mind checking if the player will not stand in a wall or something

 

The thing is that I really want the player to spawn next to the other (side by side) so they are looking the same direction.

 

Ciaranlol, okay, give me one min to look at the player API.

Ciaranlol, I would do this. first, determine which cardinal direction 0 degrees yaw is (this can be done with the debug mode, F3 i believe). Once you have determined that, check to see if you can move the player to the side in either direction. If you can, add/remove an x/z and teleport using the player's yaw and a pitch of 0. Otherwise, teleport then as normal, right on top.
