The docs say:
Quote: "ROTATEY=X , ROTATEIY=X rotate an entity around its y axis (second one with an increment)"

but there is no ROTATEX or ROTATEZ to fully access an entities translation in 3d space
Are we really limited to spin stuff around on the vertical axis or is there a solution (in a mod maybe) to turn'em around as we like?

I am Jacks complete lack of surprise.

We can already [stock engine] rotate stuff. With FPI commands (actions).

NOT in the editor, I know how to do THAT.
I mean at runtime, to for example rotate a block around the x axis when the player gets near it, but not with built-in animation and rather with a scripting command like rotatex or so...

You can use a timersystem to
Make it smooth like:



Or whwn you get near a entity:



I think the commands do work.. But mAybe looking in the fpieditpad will do the work.

Wow, that was not in the doc....Is there a rotatez also? Wait, I'll try it and get you posted...
Edit
Quote: "
;Artificial Intelligence Script
;Header
desc = rotate when player is close
;Triggers
:state=0,plrdistwithin=60:rotatex=90
;End of Script
"


no rotatex, sorry. Any other ideas?

The stock engine does not have "rotatex" or "rotatez" it only has "rotatey".

What you're looking for can be accomplished using Ply's Mod.
