Spawning multipule sprites at different angles with timeline

So I'm making a shmup right? Well, I'm gonna try using a timeline for enemy spawning. My problem right now is spawning say 9 enemy ships going in 9 different directions. How could I do that with a timeline. I know how to use the timeline, so I guess just how do I do it with anything.

Here's an example

Spawning a bunch of the same sprite, but in different directions.

I'd use a loop:

that looks pretty cool

I modded it, cuz I was so mesmerized

Nice

Looks like you downloaded the old version, though... I sneakily uploaded a new one . And yeah, I've been playing with it too. I made some kind of weird tentacle-monster squid thing that you can move around the screen.
