Rotating units inside WE?

[klemen]

I know you can rotate doodads after placing them, but is there any way to do this with units (units have facing point, but how to change that inside WE, w/o need to do it later with a trigger)?

Pressing Ctrl + Right click to the point you want them to face. I don't get it though; if you know how to rotate doodads, how come you can't rotate units? ;]

building facing angle can be changed in the gameplay constants afaik
for all other units either doubleclick them and set some facing angle (in degrees)
or select a group of units press ctrl and click any point on the map to make them face that point

edit: aaaah damn pharaoh was faster xD

Yes they do. Dodaads too. Zero degrees points East, 90º North, 180º West and 270º South.

you probably didn't understand something though I don't know what

and you can also rotate pretty much everything by selecting the object and pressing / or * (I only tried the num-block symbols)

Now I get what's the problem...

I am placing Building units, not normal units. I guess buildings can't change facing angle?

As Dark said building angles can be changed in Game constants. But that will be global and effect ALL buildings. (I believe :/ )

I already wrote that in my first post

go to "Advanced - Gameplay Constants - Building Facing Angle"
you can give some buildings a "root" ability so you can have 2 different global facing angles
