Hey guys I am new i managed to create a tower defense and am trying to improve on some of my towers. I tried selecting "Turnable" in the flags option for my tower and it didnt do anything but have the tower randomly face a direction at the beginning.

It can be done fairly easy with data editor.
What I do is using Site Operations attach your tower to the turret of something that already turns. Like a missile turret/photon cannon ect... Then you can hide the main actor and all the player sees is the attached tower that turns and faces targets when it shoots.

I'm not sure this can be done through the data editor. Through triggers it's easy though,
Event - Unit is attacked Conditions - Unit has flags: Turnable and Structure Actions - Make attacking unit face position of triggering unit

ahh that was easy with triggers. Thank you. I am surprised this couldn't be done with data editor though.
