Can anyone tell me why:

1. Despite being rotated 60 degrees, hitting left or right resets the object's position to 0, then moves?

2. Why I get decimal real numbers despite telling the object to turn *1* whole unit?

1. What patch are you running. Sounds like an early bug that was fixed in 5 or 5.1. There were a LOT of bugs in rotation commands in old releases. When I press left or right, the angle is not reset.

2. DBPro has a habit of not showing you the rounded values like other languages. The differences are like .0005 out so I would not worry about it too much. There are some rounding functions in the codebase I think.

Boo!

it's classic version 1.12

I read another forum which basically said the wrapangle function was better anyway, so I went back to that
