Unable to prevent rotation of combatants in 2D battle

primitiveType

It seems that no matter what I do, my combatants get rotated 90 degrees, which in 2d makes them seem to disappear. I can see it happen briefly after the battle scene loads.

I have set the battle spots in the framework editor to not use rotation, and I have also tried setting them to use various rotations, none of which seem to really change the actual rotation of the combatant. I don't have anything in my battle start event that could cause combatant rotation. Any ideas? Where else should I be looking? I searched the forum and didn't find any answers that helped me.

Rotations can be caused by many things. E.g.:

movement steps using the option to look into the move direction
rotation steps
the Reset Look Angles option in battle events (by default disabled, so that should be fine)
when not using battle events to animate a combatant's joining the battle, there's a Look At Enemies option (in the combatant's battle animation settings)
when using move AI, depending on the movement component you're using

It is a problem for areas battle, turn based in my case. As for Area battle settings there is no option for look at enemies, it is checked by default. I avoided this placing player and enemies battle spots with a difference of -10 z at least, so enemies flips but actually they are shown in scene. :)

I am using a battle object set to OnTriggerEnter. It loads a separate battle scene. My battle stuff is ATB. I don't have any movement steps in my battle start event no rotation steps either Reset Look Angles doesn't appear in any of the nodes of my battle start event Battle start event is the only event that happens (I have a victory event as well, but it's not getting triggered in this case of course) Look at Enemies is disabled (Didn't know that was there though, thanks) I don't have any move ai.

They still spawn and get rotated 90 degrees. Although the enemy is actually being rotated 270 degrees, so it does seem to be that they are facing each other. I'm not using Battle Areas Kaemalux, but is it possible this is an issue with Battle objects as well? Your fix seems to work (sorta) but I really don't like doing it that way. I'd rather be guaranteed that my assets will be facing the camera squarely. I tried setting rotation for the battle spots to zero, I'm really surprised that doesn't override whatever behavior is going on here.

I also tried setting rotation to 90 or -90 in the hopes that it would offset the problem, but no luck there either.

Crap, there's a Look at enemies option on the battle component that I apparently checked on accident. My mistake guys.
