Ok, i am trying to make a function which returns 24 values representing the x,y and z position of all 8 of its corners. I have done it perfectly for static objects. I am using the newxvalue and newzvalue etc. to get the 3d position regardless of the rotation of the cube. Can anybody give me any guidelines on how this can be accomplised?

No problem. I am hoping there is an easier way using simple maths, using the newvalue commands, but they are hard to get to grips with in full 3D.

At minute the cube is moved all over the place which is a bit naff.

Would rather work out coordinates without having to move anything.

Bit late now to concentrate. Will have a play tomorrow (got 2 days off work!)
