Moderator's Review:

cool and useful rune I approve
(btw fix internal name)

Oh that might come in super handy for me, although it would be great if you could add an additional animation where the arrow turns clockwise, since, y'know, it's a clock. Also having the stand animation be invisible and the upgrade be the visible one is kinda awkward. It would be best if the stand 1/2/3 etc be the visible ones and the death animation to be a fade out.

Very useful model, although animations should be fixed I am not gonna rate it just yet, I will wait for animation fixes to rate it 5/5

That's why I added the last line stating that users may edit the animations without giving credit. The number of uses of this model is huge, hence I didn't want constraint its uses by such.
Also, Im quite sure the dial turns clockwise ingame.

Welp, I just realised it does infact turn anticlockwise. This wil be fixed asap.

Whats the issue?

I think this was used on Angel Arena maps, therefore it looks great, as I've seen it.

Probably a look alike sfx, Ive never released this publicly.

Well, people could always set the dummy unit's timescale to -1 to fix this issue (Given it has an individual dummy unit type with this as a base model, and not a generic dummy unit to whom the effects are attached via triggers - GUI users tend to go with the first solution, so yea).

Well not everybody knows how to change animation names (even if it's simple). The logic is that the default animations should be intuitive (although easy to understand, the current setup isn't since it needs instructions), and any changes people want to make from there will depend on what they want/need.

You should keep the anticlockwise movement as a separate animation - this could be very useful if someone wants to make a reverse-time kind of spell, (eg: old to young/reset stats to what it was 10 seconds ago/etc).

This could be used as a cool Aura!

Noted, changes have been made.

Think I have saw it in a version of Angel Arena. If you have played the map, in the snowny part the is a Human townhall tier 1. There is this aura in a giant scale rotating at its origin....
GOTCHA!!
I may haven't found the right on but when I typed at google images angel arena allstars i scrolled down a bit and then this!
Can be found here too.

 

[Luorax]

I actually have that aura model And I've even used it:

Well, if its too similar to an already existing effect then feel free to reject this.

 

[Spellbound]

What, no, don't reject it. It's similar, but not the same thing. This is a simpler clock, not some grandiose I-stop-time-because-I'm-dramatic. It certainly has it's uses, just as the other one has it's own use.

Actually I noticed that only the spiral and the idea is the same, but definitely the execution is different, you see your model has a different circle, and only one spiral. Also suits well as a unit aura. While the other, suits better as a spell/effect.
So, I don't think it will be rejected, even if it were the same thing, different people made it.

 

[InfernalTater]

This is much smoother than the other one, and I definitely prefer it. 5/5, great job, definitely has its use and it looks good.

 

[Adiktuz]

this is nice... can be a nice effect for timed spells...

 

[Sky Green]

Tick-tock goes the clock and kino get's +rep.

 

[Vinz]

Very, very useful model.

 

[Emm-A-]

woa this will be extremly useful for any spell with a wait

 

[DaveDave91]

Perfect for my Goddess of Time!

 

[AlwaysAndForever]

Beautiful

 

[Rasamayu]

Nice

 

[KaiZen7th]

Magnificently Unique!
