It isn't possible, you need to Enable the Unit- Is a building. This means that the Building should be turned into a unit.

You can use the make unit face angle function, but it won't happen until the game starts.

It's not working... This is the trigger:

Events
    Map initialization
Actions
    Unit - Make Barracks 0000 <gen> face (Center of Region 000 <gen>) over 0.00 seconds

Not in the editor, unless Stats - Is a Building is disabled. There's a way in-game, here's how.

There is a simpler way to rotate (or in this case, creating a building w/ a different facing angle) buildings. The value of facing angle is highlighted in blue.

Example:

Set BuildingLoc = (Center of (Building Area <gen>))
Unit - Create 1 Barracks for Player 1 (Red) in BuildingLoc facing [B][COLOR="Blue"]125.00 [/COLOR][/B]degrees
call RemoveLocation(udg_BuildingLoc)

I think this is the only way to make a different face angle for a building, it's demonstrated in one of my maps.

You may use any event of your liking.

You didn't do anything negative. One way is the Unit-Is a building only and double-click on the unit and change the angle facing degrees thing.

Hehe no u dont understand what i mean is the fact that a building "is not a building" technically anymore ...

Oh.. , the building might look funny because you saw that building a million times already before and you changed its position. Weird

Do you want to rotate only one building?
That barracks?

Cos if you want to rotate all buildings in a same position, only need to change the game Constants.
Pretty easy.

 

[foodflare]

you could just change movement type to hover, set speed maximum and speed base to 26, speed minimum to 25, and turn rate to 3
then u can change that building's facing angle all you want ingame


Edit: adding an example(dont whine about leaks)

Uncheck is a buidling stat, rotate, make pathing map, recheck, apply building path, uncheck apply same degrees, recheck is a building..

now u got it rotated before in the editor with working pathing map.

It is possible. In the gameplay constants can you find
Building default face!
