Rotating a scene with an actor

macmasher

Hello! I'm new to Gamesalad. Im looking for a way to make the scene rotate with the actor. So say the actor rotates 90 degrees, the scene will as well. Is there a way to do this? Thanks

Contrain attribute camera.rotation to -self.rotation

Manto

Use the Camera Rotation attribute to rotate the camera. See example below.

macmasher

Constrain scene.camera.rotation to game.rotationActor

Do what?

macmasher

@Manto1 Wheres the attribute?

Manto

@macmasher is this what you're trying to achieve?

-Timo-

First unlock the actor and contrain camera.rotation to -self.rotation

macmasher

@Manto1 Im trying to have the camera rotate with the actor

-Timo-

Then do what I said?

macmasher

How do I constrain the camera rotation? Where do I find it?

I am not sure as I am not on a pc to check it but first you have to edit one actor so not the prototype. I think its scene.camera.rotation

Manto

@macmasher Unlock the actor and add:

Constrain attribute scene.Camera.Rotation to -self.rotation

-Timo-

Thats the word I was looking for unlock. Thanks @Manto1

Ok so I have 2 constrain attributes. On one it has: game.rotationActor then self.rotation

My second is: scene.Camera.Rotation, -self.rotation (I also tried game.rotatoinActor)

What am I missing?

If you're doing it my way, you'll just need to place that one constrain attribute rule into your unlocked Player/White Square actor. See my previous comment.

-Timo-

Place an actor with display text game.rotationActor and in the actor a display text self.rotation to check if its working. If not then you did something wrong.
Manto placed an image how to do it. Just do that and it will work.

macmasher

Hm I must be doing something wrong then. I have 1 constrain the: scene.Camera.Rotation To the -self.Rotation on the unlocked white square. Is there something I'm doing wrong?

I got it to work! Thanks for your help guys you are awesome. @Manto1 @Timelapre1998
