How do you change the angle of a Wall?

[Daethz]

I have been trying to figure out how to change a Horizontal Default Wall to go Vertical, but with almost 1 hour of work trying to figure it out now, i have come up with absolutely nothing.

How do i make it Vertical!?

Model is at http://www.hiveworkshop.com/forums/models-530/campaignwall-49087/?prev=search%3Dwall%26r%3D20%26d%3Dlist%26page%3D3

You could rotate it in a modelling program.

Are you using it as a unit or a doodad?

I'm using it as a Unit, well building more precisely, im trying to add Buildable walls to my game for people to make a base with, i don't have experience with a modeling program, i had thought wall models would have a built in Horizontal and Vertical rotation like wc3s default "Wall Low(Vertical)" and horizontal ones have, i dont want to use those because they are hollow and look odd when not correctly placed.

Set "Is a building" to false, place unit and rotate it. Then set the boolean to true.

Maybe this would work:

A unit finishes construction

TempUnitType = unit type of (constructed structure)
TempHitPoints = current life of (constructed structure)
...
Remove (constructed structure)
Create a TempUnitType at TempPoint facing X degrees
Set life etc...



But while building the unit would still have the old angle.

Other than that you really have to rotate the model afaik.
It's very easy with Magos Model Editor. (Just relect all points -> rotate -> save)

I am not sure if this will work, but you can make the wall be a unit that is not a building and then set path blockers where the wall is so nobody can get trough it.

IMO find a new wall model that comes with both horizontal and vertical
