Trying to make a actor rotate left to right-.-

TWEAmazingApps

I am trying to figure out a way to have a actor rotate to a certain degree and then when it hits that point it rotates back up. And repeats again. I want to see if there is a simple way to do this without burning through alot of code to do it also. Thank you guys!

@TWEAmazingApps

Constrain the actor's rotation to this:

20*sin(self.Time*100)


The '20' is the angle it will rotate each way from 0° . . . (so in this example it will rotate 20° to the left and then 20° to the right and then 20° to the left . . . . etc etc etc)

The '100' is the speed of the rotation.

Adjust to suit.

EDIT: @Tynan - your way seems better then mine. I would have just used rotate to angle etc. When rotation = blah, rotate to blah etc. :P
Nice job.

@Tynan I want to know if I did this right .This is what I did

Constain Attribute: self.Rotation To sin(20)self.Time*100

IS this right?!

@Tynan I want to know if I did this right.

This is what you have: sin(20)self.Time*100

This is what I posted: 20*sin(self.Time*100)

@Tynan Thank you again. It works great. And I already love the timing! I would like to know. Where could I learn more about the expression like Sin that you put down on here? I would like to gain more understanding on these so I can use them in other things. Thank you!
