» Fri May 13, 2011 5:07 pm I'm currently trying to design a system that moves exterior meshes (such as statics, lights, furniture, etc) from the exterior worldspace to a (random) vanilla interior cell. Currently the script works as it is supposed to - objects are successfully moved from the exterior to the interior. However, a problem arises when the interior mesh is rotated in regards to its exterior mesh - if the interior mesh is rotated by X degrees, then all the moved exterior meshes will be off by that X degree.
Here are some screenshots in order to illustrate the problem:

Interior mesh:

And here is the requisite code to accomplish this (note the trigonometry, which I was trying to use to move the meshes in respect to the Z angle of the interior door mesh):

Edit: Updated the script a bit. Uses unit circle stuff, but it's still a smidgen off... plus the added meshes still aren't being properly rotated to reflect the rotation change in the interior mesh.
