[Trigger] How do i rotate buildings in-game?

[Zhorker]

I play a lot of Titan Land, and in there newer versions there's a feature to rotate buildings. I'm trying to create my own version of Titan Land, so i'd like to include that in mine too. I've googled it, but there hasn't been any useful information on it. Please help. :3

Thanks, but i'm not very good with JASS. Could you try to show an example of how it would look?

Here, test the map.

To make it work:
Buildings need the custom ability 'Change facing'
Buildings need more than 0 movement speed base
Buildings need more than 0 turn speed



PS: Remember to edit the spell to your needs if you want to use this way.

This won't really do since any buildings with attacks will turn by themselves

Well thats the way you do it with GUI, you can control any facings by triggers either.

Or copy and paste the function (maker posted the link) into your map header and call it.

custom script: call SetImmovableUnitFacing(GetTriggerUnit(), ANGLE)
If you cast an ability you can replace ANGLE with:

Atan2(GetSpellTargetY() - GetUnitY(GetTriggerUnit()), GetSpellTargetX() - GetUnitX(GetTriggerUnit()))

I am forever grateful. Thanks :3
