Hi everyone! I decided to draw armor and weapons for my top down 2D sprites (separate instead of pre-drawn already on the sprite). Quick question: Can I use the equipment viewer component? I tried real quick just to see. The cap I have for my player shows up, but doesn't rotate with him. Do I have to go back to switching sprites? Thanks!!
I.e. whatever rotation the parent object does will also affect the viewer - so make sure it's placed under the correct parent objects to also rotate :)

Using bones could fix that, but it's not a guarantee. You kinda have to animate it the way that bone rotates like you want.
If it's true top down game and note an Isometric or slightly tilted one, then I guess easiest method would be to actually rotate player Gameobject, if you play only Forward animations and rotate the object, then it should all work.
P.S. if you have not already, I recommend going through Unity Tutorials first.

They should explain how parenting, rotation etc. works.
