So I have this scene and I want this magic overlay to turn around 360 degrees at the same spot however I just can’t seem to get it to work. the overlay either turns and after that grows slowly or does something else. please help me I know that there are video’s out here but I’m still not good at rotating overlays they just don’t work for me

&overlay 8 create
&overlay 4558641901338624_8 shifts to 157 279
&overlay 4558641901338624_8 scales to 0.154 0.154
&overlay 8 opacity 1 @overlay 4558641901338624_8 shifts to 175 306 in 5
&overlay 4558641901338624_8 scales to 1.000 1.000
&overlay 8 rotates 360 anchor point 0.5 0.5
If you’re still confused by the post I linked above try:
&overlay 8 rotates 360 anchor point 0.5 0.5 in [s] THEN overlay 8 rotates 0 anchor point 0.5 0.5 in 0 loop INFINITE times (or however many times you want)
where [s] is the time you want in seconds Make you you specify this e.g:
&overlay 8 rotates 360 anchor point 0.5 0.5 in 0.5 THEN overlay 8 rotates 0 anchor point 0.5 0.5 in 0 loop INFINITE times
Try:
&overlay 8 create
&overlay 8 shifts to 157 279 in 0
&overlay 8 scales to 0.154 0.154 in 0 @overlay 8 opacity 100% in 0
&overlay 8 scales to 1.000 1.000 in 5 @overlay 8 shifts to 175 306 in 5 @overlay 8 rotates 360 anchor point 0.5 0.5 in 1
For the last two lines, I don’t know how fast you want to rotate your overlay, or where it is going, but usually when you rotate an overlay, it will move slightly. Your best bet is to shift it to the end position at the same time using & so that it looks like it is rotating in the same spot.
