hi,i have some code like:

print yangle object(1)

i rotate my object,it gives me a # of 40

i then change my code to this:
yrotate object 1,40

but my object is not rotated the right angle now.
i play with it & find out the yangle i wanted is like -140 or something like that.

so how do i get the 'real' yrotation #????

David iz cool,

To start, DB only allows a angle between 0 and 360 to rotate objects. If you are using atanfull, coming up with negative angle value. Then, convert the negative value angles to a correct positive value by incrementing them by 360.

Or if you want to save some place:



It does completely the same. The only difference is the number of command lines...
