• Introduced in version 1.3b51

Sets the facing angle of a token.

setTokenFacing(angle)
setTokenFacing(angle, tokenRef)
setTokenFacing(angle, tokenRef, mapname)

Parameters

angle - The angle as which to set the facing.
tokenRef - Either the token id or Token Name of the token to set the facing of, defaults to the current token. If this parameter is used, this function requires a trusted macro.
mapname - The name of the map to find the token. Defaults to the current map.

Token IDs are unique, but Token Names can be duplicated. Using Token Name when more than one token has the same name can produce unexpected results.
