Stevie G - Will positionentity X,1,Z work if the plane is pointing towards you at a 45 degree angle for example? (ie to get the piece 1 unit above the ground but perpendicular to it, it would need to go a little bit up and a little towards you, not just 1 unit straight up)



Yes, because you're positioning it within the maps local space, rather than global. It therefore takes into consideration the map's rotation when positioning.

No need for tform commands here.
