Script for Linking multiple layers to a null layer

[animexia]

I'm trying to link multiple layers to an animated null layer but I want each layer to start the animation from layer starting time.

What would be the script I need to add instead duplicating null layer for every layers?

I hope that question isn't too confusing to understand lol

TIA

Your question could be clearer. Maybe a screenshot would help.

Sorry, I'm not good at explaining things though texts lol

Hopefully this picture can explain better what I'm trying to achieve.

I want to link the text layers to ROTATE null object but I want the keyframes to start at the beginning of each of text layer. This way, I won't need keyframes for each text layer and I can adjust the timing easier later. I know the script lines to link them to a null object but I can't figure out the line to tell the keyframes to start at the beginning of the layer instead the null object in the timeline.

I think I just made this more confusing lol

I think you could do that with an expression like this:

thisComp.layer("ROTATE").transform.xRotation.valueAtTime(time-inPoint)
