Treasure Chest Problems

Hi, guys.

I’ve downloaded a free treasure chest asset from the Asset Store. It also has animations of the treasure chest opening and closing. The problem, though, is when I rotate the chest and I open it by pressing a key, it reverts back to its original position before opening, as shown in this link:

I need to know how to fix this problem because I am working on a video game for my thesis.

Your prompt responses are highly appreciated. Thank you very much!

simplest way is to place the chest in an empty game object and then rotate that leaving the chest at it’s default in the local space but facing the way you want globaly.
