Point in direction.

If it is at all possible, a commandd that would allow you to get units to rotate on the spot (or even within a small radius) to all face a specified point would be very useful.

You can do so via LuaRules.
You can also probably do it fairly well with a Widget that sets a movepoint on the line between the Units and the target point.

And really, doing it by luaRules is appropriate. There is no user-command for "set facing", so making it an AI-only command would be nasty. If the user can't do it, 3rd-party Lua widgets shouldn't be the only way in.

S44 has such a thing implemented in a mix of lua and cob. It's not the cleanest implementation though.

Okay thanks all, tinkering will commence.
