I have a spaceship which I want to remain in the centre of the screen. Centralising it is easy, but then comes the problem with rotation; how do I rotate the object so that its centre is the point of rotation and not the top-left corner.

I use this kind of code for the current rotational system, which I need fixed.



Regards, Tom.

This worked; the rotation is around the co-ordinate, which is now in the centre of the ship, so the ship turns in place! Thank you!
