hi all,
after some searching on internet i found the function: [FONT=Courier New]rotateAroundExternalPoint(m:[COLOR=#0066cc]Matrix[/COLOR], x:[URL=“http://www.kirupa.com/forum/…/…/Number.html”][COLOR=#0066cc]Number[/COLOR], y:[URL=“http://www.kirupa.com/forum/…/…/Number.html”][COLOR=#0066cc]Number[/COLOR], angleDegrees:[URL=“http://www.kirupa.com/forum/…/…/Number.html”][COLOR=#0066cc]Number[/COLOR]) [/FONT][FONT=Verdana]to rotate an object around an external point. [/FONT]
The top of the object will always point at the centerpoint which is exactly what i want.
[FONT=Verdana]It works fine but i was wondering if its possible to rotate it in an oval instead of in a perfect circle…[/FONT]
I think it should be something with the angleDegrees Parameter but im not sure what to do with it. I also tried to set up an own matrix but i failed:doh:
Can someone please give me a push in the right direction to orbit an object in an oval, and where the top of the object always point at the rotation center ?
Thnx!
