Flipping an object around?

I'm wondering how you can turn objects upside-down, or rotate a certain angle.

I've heard of spin, but if I do spin 180 1 0 0, it goes underground and is a pain to position.

Is there an easier way?

First you spin it. If that places it below ground, just make your next statement a shift statement and shift it UP in Z until it is back above ground.

Take a look at my post in the Works in progress forum for BZ-sketball

There is a more in depth explaination.

you can also do this instead of rotating it:

Code: Select all

scale 1 1 -1
