you coud also use deltaPitch deltayaw and delateroll functions.

if you can use EntityX entityY and EntityZ, maybe this should work:

Open in online IDE

Graphics3D 800,600,0,2
SetBuffer BackBuffer()

light	=	CreateLight	(1)
			MoveEntity	light,50,50,-50

cam		=	CreateCamera()
			MoveEntity	cam,0,40,0
			TurnEntity	cam,90,0,0

point1	=	CreateCone	()
			RotateMesh	point1,90,0,0
			ScaleMesh	point1,1,1,2
			EntityColor	point1,0,255,0

point2	=	CreateCone()
			RotateMesh	point2,90,0,0
			ScaleMesh	point2,1,1,2
			EntityColor	point2,255,0,0
			MoveEntity	point2,-10,0,15

Repeat
	mx=MouseX()
	my=MouseY()
	px#=40*(Float(mx-400)/400)
	pz#=40*(Float(300-my)/400)
	PositionEntity point2,px,0,pz
	PointEntity point2,point1
	SmoothPoint(point1,point2,.1)
	RenderWorld
	Flip
Until KeyHit(1)

End




Function SmoothPoint(source%,dest%,rate#=1)
	Dx#=EntityX(dest,1)-EntityX(source,1)
	Dy#=EntityY(dest,1)-EntityY(source,1)
	Dz#=EntityZ(dest,1)-EntityZ(source,1)
	AlignToVector source,dx#,dy#,dz#,3,rate
End Function
