Orbital rotation

[planetX]

Hi there,

let's say I want a planet orbiting around a star. How can I do it by script?...

A function like entity.attachOffset(parent,child,x,y,z) would be great.

Cheers

why not use the entity - offset action

You could just use a couple of actions:

I use this to make simple birds fly around.

Hi, thanks for reply.

I'm creating random planets from an array, so I guess it has to be done through script. There's no mesh in the editor for every planet, I'm just spawning the same sphere and then changing the texture... you know, procedural things.

I think I got it... I just have to move the child right after attaching it to the parent, so if I rotate the parent, the child rotates with an offset.

Yes exactly
