Hey all, in the middle of making some custom heroes for a map I'm working on and thought of some kool abilities that would involve the unit spinning. However, i have no idea how to make a unit spin in the data editor, thus cancelling any hope in making this type of ability =(
That is why I made this thread, I would love it if someone had an idea of how to make this possible =D and is willing to share their secrets =P
Just apply a Site Operation (Smooth Rotation) to the actor and in the events of the actor use the Set Facing or Set Rotation action to get it to spin using the periodic effects of your ability to trigger the turning using a Status Increment/Set system similar to the marauder unit for using it's weapons to make sure it performs smooth full rotations.
