A ship with 180 facings will take at least 6 seconds to fully rotete. Way too slow.
I wouldn't recommend that, especially for fighters and gunships.
no it wouldn't...
I've tried it w/ 120- it's no slower than normal...
Off-topic but - now, that's very strange. Did that 120 facings really work? And how fast was the "normal" speed you're saying? How long did it take to rotate?
It worked perfectly- the ship rotates nicely and smoothly.
The rotation speed attribute works like this: 1 = 1 second per rotation, 2 = 2seconds per rotation, 3 seconds per rotation... etc.
When compared to a 20 facing running at 2, the 120 facing running at 2 rotated at the same speed.
