      @Aidan-Oxley said in Spawn On Object Doesn't Heed Rotation:

      What if I want my spawned object to not be at an angle?

      If the spawn object's rotation is heeded, the above question is a simpler one, with simpler solutions.

      Rotate to: Done!

        @Deeeds Maybe this could be an option then, like a switch inside the Spawn on Object behaviour, “Rotate to Parent” or something like that.

          No spawn behaviors spawn the child as a replica of the parent, instead it spawns them in their GameStart state.

          Just figured this one out.

            @Thecheater887 Yes, this took me some degree of experimentation to figure out. Not particularly intuitive, nor well articulated.

            And unfortunately very inflexible, too.

            The good news?

            You can delete all your parents at game start, and they're still available for all spawning needs.

            If that's useful for you.

                  @iTap-Development Try to use full sentences, and preferably a paragraph.

                  What are you trying to do?

                  What are you trying to solve?

                  This screen shot is completely uninformative.

                    @iTap-Development It’s cheap an dirty, but yes.

                    Somewhat anyways.

                    I’m having some issues with that, too, but there’s probably a hornets nest somewhere in my code...

                      @Deeeds the screen shot is just the behaviors in the project that I gave the link for.
                      All I’m doing is giving the object I want to spawn a tag, and selecting that tag in the spawn behavior.
                      Then I use a rotate behavior with the same tag selected.
                      The result is that the newly spawned object (only) rotates.
                      I’m doing almost the same thing as @Aidan-Oxley, except I’m using a tag in the spawn behavior, instead of in a collide.

                        Perhaps you missed the questions:

                        What are you trying to do?

                        What are you trying to solve?

                          @Deeeds in case you didn’t read it, here’s what I’m trying to do: what I’m doing is giving the object I want to spawn a tag, and selecting that tag in the spawn behavior.
                          Then I use a rotate behavior with the same tag selected.

                          The problem I was trying to solve: “Spawn On Object Doesn't Heed Rotation” as stated in the title of this thread.

                          PLEASE DONT 🤬🤬🤯🤮🤢😠😤!!!!!!!!!
                          I UNDERSTAND THIS ISNT THE BEST SOLUTION! BUT IT IS A REASONABLE WORKAROUND!

                            @iTap-Development When I ask "what are you trying to do?" I'm not asking about technique. I'm asking about the endeavour.

                                @GameCRAZY I know comprehension and joining dots is difficult. The title leads to this:

                                Makes for much simpler manufacturing of diverse objects,

                                Diversity is not something addressed in what he's attempting to do. The opposite is. Everything being the same.

                                  @Deeeds Dude it is not that hard (what he is doing)! But leave me out of it, this argument is dumb and pointless!

                                    @GameCRAZY You've made it so by claiming he's actually addressing the problems. He's not. He's isolated a single way to do a single thing with a single object on a single spawn.

                                    That is the very opposite of the reason for the problem being a problem.

                                    And, like your other comments, this seems to stem from a desire to not consider anything that's not what you want added to the next release.

                                    IAP,, I gather.
