I need someone to explain to me how rotate overlays!

Have you tried practicing?

@overlay NAME rotates # anchor point x x in T

The symbols # x x and T NEED to be replaced. # and x x will be explained below (quote from the guide linked above). T is a number, the time, in seconds.

*# is a number between 0 through 360 (like the degrees of a circle)

  • 360 turns the overlay all the way around, which turns it back to 0
  • 180 makes the overlay upside down
  • Rotating an overlay depends on it’s anchor point which is the point from which the overlay will rotate.
    x x is the anchor point
  • anchor point 0 0 is the bottom left of the overlay
  • anchor point 0.5 0.5 is the center of the overlay
  • anchor point 1 1 is the top right of the overlay​
    To see where the anchor points are found, check out the guide I linked above, it shows a graph with the anchor points.

Ex.

&overlay NAME rotates 360 anchor point 0.5 0.5 in 2

I highly recommend to practice :yay:

Also, you can have an overlay rotate 'round and 'round:

  • To have an overlay rotate infinitely, you have to reset the the overlay back to 0
    &overlay OVERLAYNAME rotates 360 anchor point 0.5 0.5 in [time] THEN overlay OVERLAYNAME rotates 0 anchor point 0.5 0.5 in 0 loop INFINITE times

So you can use the loop command with the rotation command. By the way, you can combine commands using AND/and or & (you can’t use and/AND in a looping command, you must use & when looping infinitely and don’t name your overlay with the word AND).
