Kinda dumb enemy question

[nrofl]

Ive ran into a problem when using decorate for an enemy. The enemy has sprites that have angular sprites (like WRAEA2A8 etc) But the enemy doesnt show these frames when looking at it in other angles. Heres the DECORATE code right now:

 

ACTOR WrathElemental : Cacodemon 15000
{
    Health 1000
    Radius 48
    Height 112
    Mass 400
    Speed 10
    PainChance 16
    ActiveSound "WEIDLE1"
    DeathSound "WEDETH1"
    PainSound "WEPAIN1"
    MONSTER
    +NOGRAVITY
    +FLOAT
    States
    {
        Spawn:
        WRAE A 8
        loop
        See:
        WRAE A 6 A_Chase
        loop
        Missile:
        WRAE CD 6 A_FaceTarget
        WRAE D 0 A_CustomMissile ("WrathRain", 60, 0, random(-5, -5), 0)
        WRAE D 3 A_CustomMissile ("WrathRain", 60, 0, random(-5, -5), 0)
        WRAE D 0 A_CustomMissile ("WrathRain", 60, 0, random(-5, -5), 0)
        WRAE D 3 A_CustomMissile ("WrathRain", 60, 0, random(-5, -5), 0)
        WRAE D 0 A_CustomMissile ("WrathRain", 60, 0, random(-5, -5), 0)
        WRAE D 3 A_CustomMissile ("WrathRain", 60, 0, random(-5, -5), 0)
        WRAE D 0 A_CustomMissile ("WrathRain", 60, 0, random(-5, -5), 0)
        WRAE D 3 A_CustomMissile ("WrathRain", 60, 0, random(-5, -5), 0)
        Pain:
        WRAE E 3 A_Pain
        Goto See
        Death:
        WRAE FGHIJKL 5 A_NoBlocking
        WRAE M 4
        WRAE N -1
        Stop
    }
}

ACTOR WrathRain
{
    Radius 10
    Height 10
    Speed 10
    Damage 8
    SeeSound "imp/attack"
    DeathSound "imp/shotx"
    PROJECTILE
    States
    {
        Spawn:
        WRFI AB 5
        Death:
        WRFI CDEF 10
        Stop
        }
}

 

Any fixes?

For this issue you have to post a screenshot of your wad opened up in Slade3 (or the wad itself), not the DECORATE

Ok, it looks it's a quite normal oversight.

The first images of every "sprite's frame" of you monster have a number of 0 instead of 1, so you're basically telling the game that there're no other images to check for "rotation".

Facepalm moment. Thanks for clearing that up

Oh lord. I believe I am stupid because I get an error that frame C is missing rotations:

Please excuse my idiocracy

Are you seeing behavior issues with the monster? Typically the attack sequence terminates with "gotosee". Also spawn states for monsters typically have a line that calls "A_Look".
