How to rotate sprite based on phone rotation

Question

I am trying to rotate a sprite based on the iPhone's rotation (roll). How would I go by doing this in swift (4.2)? I found Apple documentation using CMAttitude, but I don't understand how to implement this into code. Any help is appreciated, Thanks!!!

Answer 1

"You access CMAttitude objects through the attitude property of each CMDeviceMotion objects passed to an application."

See the official documentation

Have a look at CMDeviceMotion - that is what is really necessary!

You need the CMMotionManager to receive what you want.
Maybe is this link or this tutorial helpful for you.
-> everything you need to know, to get started with DeviceMotions

Additional:
Think you re at SKit, that has the function rotate.

Simple as that:
based on the rotation of the phone you could
- start rotation clockwise or counterclockwise
- stop the rotation
- and even change the rotation

  let angle : Float = (direction == yourDirection) ? Float(X) : -Float(X)
  let rotate = SKAction.rotateByAngle(angle, duration: 1)
  let repeatAction = SKAction.repeatActionForever(rotate)
  sprite.runAction(repeatAction, withKey: "rotate")
