i have searched all of the forums and haven't found anything on making a sprite spin around like cube would in 3d.(probaly cuz all the posts start with "need help i am a noob.) grrrrr.
i want to make it an airplane turning.
i think it has something to do with curvevalue and/or wrapvalue.
any help would be appreciated.

Hmm...

For a rotation animation such as that I believe you're going to find you have to supply the multiple image frames yourself, say up, upper-right, right, and so on. Then you just change the image being used by the sprite in the sprite command. As a bonus, it is possible to use only 90 degrees of rotation with the lfip and mirror options, but you still have to make those images in a source bitmap.

Any truly great code should be indisguishable from magic.

DBPro has sprite rotation, DBC doesn't. Which are you using?

The command that you need to look at for DBPro is ROTATE SPRITE, and possibly SET SPRITE OFFSET to set the sprite rotation point.
