You could add a timer, after 0 seconds, the player starts to look at a specific entity/area with:

void StartPlayerLookAt(string& asEntityName, float afSpeedMul, float afMaxSpeed, string& asAtTargetCallback);

--------------------
Forces the player to look at a certain entity until StopPlayerLookAt is used.
asEntityName - the entity to look at
afSpeedMul - how fast should the player look at the entity
afMaxSpeed - maximum speed allowed
asAtTargetCallback - function to call when player looks at target
--------------------

And after 2 seconds in your timer, the player stops to look at the entity/area with:

void StopPlayerLookAt();

It requires that you know how to set up a timer.
