Places the object at the player (PlaceAtPC) or another object/activator (PlaceAtMe), in the direction you specify and the distance. If that location is not safe (in the air, in a wall, etc), the object will be placed at one of the other axis or at the player’s exact location (feet). It is used most often to spawn NPCs/creatures near the player/object for a coordinated and timed attack.
