    I have a sphere spinning, and i want to control how fast the sphere spins by a slider control with 0 being stopped. I cant seem to get the right expression for linking the Y rotation with the slider without key framing the slider in order to get it to rotate. Thank you for helping a newbie!!

    Set your Y rotation equal to time, and then multiply it by your slider control. That way, when the slider control is set to 0, it’ll be time x 0 = 0, but anything higher will increase the rotation speed.
