| | | (...) Be careful criticizing the parts authors when you don't know what you're discussing. They've put a helluva lot more thought into this than you have. For example, at which logical rotation point should 0,0,0 be put? A corner? The centerline for (...) (25 years ago, 11-Feb-00, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)

Like I've got a 3x4 hinge plat with some of those hexagonal pieces at the end to make a door (think Message Intercept Base) and I want to set the submodel's rotational axis along (...)

To this end, insert a 3070.DAT (1x1 tile) located at 0,0,0; its top surface is centered upon (...) (25 years ago, 11-Feb-00, to lugnet.cad.mlcad)
