Hey, is it possible to make a building face an angle? If yes, please tell how.

haha, here you are..

first, on the object editor, set it's "Stats - Is a building Equal to True" to False
then, double click the building and set it's "Facing (deg):" to the angle that you want
after that, set it's "Stats - Is a building Equal to False" to True :)

do you want to change the facing in editor or ingame?
if you want to change it ingame, then u can only do it on creation of the building, not later

You can make the building a unit, make it face in the editor (Ctrl + Click) and then make the unit a building again; any value you change in the building afterwards will make the Building face it's default degrees again. That only works for pre-placed buildings.

You can also do it with triggers during gametime using "Unit - Set unit facing"

I think there's a default building face degree in the gameplay constants, but that will apply to all buildings.

You can, alternatively, rotate the camera angle, instead of rotating stuff.
