How can I change the direction a player is facing?

I tried using the get and set rotation methods but it doesn't seem to do anything to a player.

Here is the code I used:

world.afterEvents.entityHurt.subscribe(data => {
    const rotation = data.damageSource.damagingEntity.getRotation();
    data.hurtEntity.setRotation(rotation);
})```

Only way I know to update the player's rotation is via teleportation.

/tp or the tp method, I am pretty sure that the set rotation method only works on entity’s and not players.

oh that sucks

[gritty agate]

is there any way to change the player's look direction by getting the rotation? it seems like the teleportation method only lets you choose a block for them to look at

teleporting allows you to either use a location vector or a rotation vector, and if it was really was required you could do a bit of math.
