I am wondering if anyone has gotten self-rotation to change in game using an attribute rule. since I have tried for a very long time and havent been able to change this setting.

Yes. In my case I did the below to switch the actor around based on screen orientation.

add a game attribute in the scene inspector/game/attributes

in mine I added a integer (number) attribute and called it 'clock rotor' by default this is set at 0 and is fine...

then I added a background actor and and in the actor editor added a timer to it from basic behaviours

this is set to 'every 0 seconds'

Inside the timer I added 4 rules to send numbers to my game attribute 'clock rotor'

these were rule all/attribute/game.screen.device orientation/is/landscape left

then

change attribute game/clock rotor to 1

I then made 3 more rules for each direction, each changing the number stored in my 'clock rotor attribute by 1

to check this I added a display text to my background and set it to game.clock rotor

this made sure things were running correctly before applying the rule to an actor.

Then I created the actor I actually wanted to rotate and in his actor editor page added for rules to change his rotation-

Up rule- When all attribute/game.clock rotor=1

change attribute to self.rotation to 0

down rule- When all attribute/game.clock rotor=2

change attribute to self.rotation to 180

left rule- When all attribute/game.clock rotor=3

change attribute to self.rotation to 270

right rule- When all attribute/game.clock rotor=4

change attribute to self.rotation to 90

hope that helps
