aY# = object angle Y(1)
aX# = object angle X(1)
aZ# = object angle Z(1)

aY# = Wrapvlue(aY#-5)
aX# = Wrapvlue(aX#-5)
aZ# = Wrapvlue(aZ#-5)

Yrotate object 1,aY#
Xrotate object 1,aX#

If you use "text x,y,string$" instead of "print" you can get the text to print in the same location everytime. "Text" is a command that combines both "set cursor" and "print" in one.



Also "Wrapvlue" should be "Wrapvalue".

alternativly you could do it like this:



and if you want the float printed in integer value, just use the INT() command

grogs, code will work. As for Lukas, I think that the print will just write on top of each other until you have a white (or what ever text color you have) box. Its a good habbit to use the text commands anyway.

but you thought wrong, you see by using the set cursor command you decide where on the screen the text should be printed.

as for the Text command, it is faster to write but you have to do that str$() thingy.. you wont need that with the Print command.

Actually Lukas, you don't need the second two Set Cursor commands using that method - all you need is the first one. (Print includes the LF/CR to drop down to the start of the next line).

set cursor 0,0
print "AX# = ",aX#
print "AY# = ",aY#
print "AZ# = ",aZ#

But, as mentioned already, it's better to use the Text command as you have the ability to use font faces and sizes which you don't with Print.
