Rotating in relation to a particles direction.

Hi there.

I have a polyplane that I would like to follow a particle.

I have done the following the pariticle bit, but now I need to rotate the polyplane acordingly.

What I want is the polyplane to orient toward where the particle will be in a moment. To be pointing where it is heading so to speak. Like an arrow.

I'm not sure but i think what I need to do is to take the particles velocity and use that information to derive the orientation.

But how is the math? And how is the MEL way?

Do I make sence or do I need to explain more?

Thank you.
