[General] How does one obtain a spinning effect?

[Tal'Rarity]

For triggers as well GUI.

How would you spin two units around a caster each going a different way for example positive offset then negative offset...? I am stuck with trying to move them while spinning.

Could you clarify a bit. You want 2 units to spin around caster? If so maybe something like this( and clear leaks):

• Untitled Trigger 001
  • Events
    • Time - Every 0.03 seconds of game time
  • Conditions
  • Actions
    • Unit - Move (SPININGUNIT1) instantly to ((Position of CASTER) offset by 256.00 towards Angle degrees), facing Default building facing degrees
    • Unit - Move (SPININGUNIT2) instantly to ((Position of CASTER) offset by 256.00 towards (Angle + 180.00) degrees), facing Default building facing degrees
    • Set Angle = (Angle + 1.00)

You are trying to get 2 units to orbit a single unit while the single unit moves?

I'll give you some basic directions. Lets call the 2 orbitals X and Y and the unit they will rotate around unit A.

So you need get the location/coordinates (whichever you prefer) of A, then you need to periodically(.03 should be good) set the position of X and Y to the position of A offset by however much you like, then in/decrease the angle for X and Y as appropriate to get them to go in opposite directions. I made something that might help you visualize this a while ago I'll see if I can dig it up.

Edit: Here's the test map of it. It shows how to get a single unit to spin around another
