rotating soldier

[appdeveloper]

Hi

I'm making a tank game.
In the game, i've made a function to rotate the tower of the tank. And this function is working:

private function move_Mouse():void
{
var n1:Number;
var n2:Number;

var radians = Math.atan2( mouseY -tower.y ,mouseX -tower.x);
var degrees = (radians / Math.PI) * 180;
tower.rotation = degrees-90;

}

but, now, i'm trying to rotate the soldiers in the game, acording to the tank position, which is not working, and i can't find out why:

private function enemies():void
{
var radians;
var degrees;

var counter:int;

for(counter=0;counter<m_totalSoldiers;counter++)
{
radians = Math.atan2(hero_base.y - bazucaMen[counter].y, hero_base.x - bazucaMen[counter].x);
degrees = (radians / Math.PI) * 180;
bazucaMen[counter].rotation = degrees ;
}
}


the bazucaMen[counter].rotation = degrees is not functioning, but if i do
bazucaMen[counter].rotation = bazucaMen[counter].rotation+degrees
then the soldiers just go crazy, rotating, even when the tank is stoped, which means this function is really getting called.

Any help?

My thanks in advanced

oh, something else:
as a test i've substituted tower.x and tower.y for mouseX and mouseY, and the soldier rotates according to the mouse pointer. So why doesn´t he rotates according to the object?
