It's exactly the same like here

but you can't use "this.angle" that's no variable in algodoo. and instead of typing := type = because := is the declaring sign.

[Rideg]

So I type scene.my.thisAngle=what?

[KarateBrot]

yes exactly.
but what you want to type depends on what you want to do with scene.my.thisangle

[Rideg]

You know the box that spwnes in by the red box? Well the spawned boxes angle should be spawned with the same angle as the grey box, and I don't know what to write in the script

[KarateBrot]

which angle do you mean? the grey box has got 4 sides so basically there are 4 angles.

[Rideg]

It has the angle of zero degrees ( the side were the laser hits it )currently but when it's being rotated the angle changes and so does the scene.my.thisAngle.

[KarateBrot]

where it hits it that's not 0 degrees. it's 270 degrees. if the laser would hit the right side of the box it would be 0 degrees.

[Rideg]

okey.. but the problem remains how will I get the spawned boxex to have that angle?

[standardtoaster]

angle := scene.my.ang

[Rideg]

yeah know that it's updating the variable thats the problem.. I need the grey box angle to tell the variable what number it should have.
