Placing Units {facing a fixed angle}

[jfkberdan]

How can I place units in terrain editor with a fixed angle?

 

[Emm-A-]

if they are buildings, it is possible, if they arent its not.

Maybe you could get some more help by telling us more about your problem

 

[jfkberdan]

I want to make a hero selection. I am creating a circle of power with a hero above. I want to make the hero face the circle of power.

well in editor, select the hero and rotate the hero while CTRL is pressed. You can rotate it however you want.

if the hero isn't already placed, and you want to palce it in the game
you have to use a trigger like this one:

• Unit - Create 1 Mountain King for Player 1 (Red) at (Center of (Playable map area)) facing 160.00 degrees

EDIT: 160.00 degrees is just an example of value.

Place your hero and then double click on him, after that a screen will appear in which you have the current facing angle, modify the angle there to mach your needs

 

[sadvisor]

why would he use this hard way of changing his angle by double-clicking when he can use this simple method:
1 - select the hero
2 - hold CTRL
3 - rotate the mouse and the hero will rotate as well

?!

 

[AJalex]

because its more exact? if you rotate the mouse button you always remain with .xx values

 

[sadvisor]

yeah, right..whatever

jfkberdan the conclusion is:
If you want to waste your life use AJale'x useless method.
If you want to do it quick and nice, do what I said
