Add this:

thread rotateSink();

inside the curly brackets of your main() function. Place the entire rotateSink() function outside of main(). Test.

Well Im getting an error... and Im still not sure I have it in the right place lol.

So here is what my .gsc looks like now and I feel its not right:

main(thread rotateSink();)
{
	//maps\createart\mp_ag_town_art::main();
	maps\mp\_load::main();
	maps\mp\_breakglass::main();
	maps\mp\mp_ag_town_doors::main();
	maps\mp\mp_ag_town_hatches::main();
	maps\mp\mp_ag_town_doors_pack::main();
	maps\mp\_ac_fan_script::main();
	maps\mp\mp_ag_town_drown::main();
	maps\createfx\mp_ag_town_fx::main();
	maps\mp\mp_ag_town_fx::main();
	maps\mp\_explosive_barrels::main();

	//maps\mp\_compass::setupMiniMap("compass_map_mp_ag_town");

	//setExpFog(500, 2200, 0.81, 0.75, 0.63, 0);
	//VisionSetNaked( "mp_ag_town" );
	//ambientPlay("ambient_ag_town_ext");

	game["allies"] = "marines";
	game["axis"] = "opfor";
	game["attackers"] = "axis";
	game["defenders"] = "allies";
	game["allies_soldiertype"] = "desert";
	game["axis_soldiertype"] = "desert";

	setdvar( "r_specularcolorscale", "1" );

	setdvar("r_glowbloomintensity0",".25");
	setdvar("r_glowbloomintensity1",".25");
	setdvar("r_glowskybleedintensity0",".3");
	setdvar("compassmaxrange","1800");
	}

rotateSink {	
	sinkElements = getEntArray( "sink_element", "targetname" );
	if( isDefined( sinkElements ) )
		for( i=0; i < sinkElements.size; i++ )
			sinkElements[i] rotateYaw( 45, 1.5 );
	
}


}

And the error is for line 1 of my .gsc, it doesnt like the code inside the ()

xD this is crazy

main() //inside these brackets is nothing!
{
	//maps\createart\mp_ag_town_art::main();
	maps\mp\_load::main();
	maps\mp\_breakglass::main();
	maps\mp\mp_ag_town_doors::main();
	maps\mp\mp_ag_town_hatches::main();
	maps\mp\mp_ag_town_doors_pack::main();
	maps\mp\_ac_fan_script::main();
	maps\mp\mp_ag_town_drown::main();
	maps\createfx\mp_ag_town_fx::main();
	maps\mp\mp_ag_town_fx::main();
	maps\mp\_explosive_barrels::main();

	//add calls to other funktions inside the main ( between these brackets > { } )
	thread rotateSink();
	//maps\mp\_compass::setupMiniMap("compass_map_mp_ag_town");

	//setExpFog(500, 2200, 0.81, 0.75, 0.63, 0);
	//VisionSetNaked( "mp_ag_town" );
	//ambientPlay("ambient_ag_town_ext");

	game["allies"] = "marines";
	game["axis"] = "opfor";
	game["attackers"] = "axis";
	game["defenders"] = "allies";
	game["allies_soldiertype"] = "desert";
	game["axis_soldiertype"] = "desert";

	setdvar( "r_specularcolorscale", "1" );

	setdvar("r_glowbloomintensity0",".25");
	setdvar("r_glowbloomintensity1",".25");
	setdvar("r_glowskybleedintensity0",".3");
	setdvar("compassmaxrange","1800");

}
//extra function, out of the main brackets!

rotateSink()
{	
	sinkElements = getEntArray( "sink_element", "targetname" );
	if( isDefined( sinkElements ) )
		for( i=0; i < sinkElements.size; i++ )
			sinkElements[i] rotateYaw( 45, 1.5 );
	
}

EDIT: fixed

That kicked a bad syntax error for the { below rotateSink

brackets missing:

rotateSink <--- HERE
{
sinkElements = getEntArray( "sink_element", "targetname" );
...

should be rotateSink()

Give this a try. It should work. Take a look at the attached .map for reference on setting it up. One thing you have to take into consideration is players can jam the sink movement unless you put a trigger hurt somewhere in there, and turn it on when needed.

main()
{
	thread sinkSecret();
}

sinkSecret()
{
	level.sinkTrig = getEnt ("sink_trig", "targetname");
	level.hurtTrig = getEnt ("sink_hurt_trig", "targetname");
	
	level.hurtTrig maps\mp\_utility::triggerOff();
	
	sinkParts = getEntArray ("sink", "targetname");
	for (i=0; i < sinkParts.size; i++)
	{
		sinkParts[i] thread sinkThink();
	}
}

sinkThink()
{
	while(1)
	{
		level.sinkTrig waittill ("trigger");
		level.sinkTrig maps\mp\_utility::triggerOff();

//		self playSound ("my_sound");
		self moveX (-64, 2, 0.5, 0.5);
		self waittill ("movedone");
		
		wait (5);
		
//		self playSound ("my_sound");
		self moveX (64, 2, 0.5, 0.5);
		self waittill ("movedone");
		
		level.hurtTrig maps\mp\_utility::triggerOff();
		
		level.sinkTrig maps\mp\_utility::triggerOn();
	}
}

The sounds won't work, I don't have enough time to work on it right now, so I just commented them out, because with the current code it will play three times, which is not what you want, since there are 3 sink entities. You have to create an origin for the sounds to play from, either spawn a script origin or just put one in and grab its targetname, which is probably best. Anyway, it should work. Just change your distance (64, -64) it moves and direction, (X or Y) based on where you want to move it to. the speed you'll have to match with your sound later.
