    I am trying to make a game where the player is rotated to the left or right based on how fast they are going either left or right relative to the rotation.

    I know how to rotate the player correctly but is there a way or some sort of calculation that can output the speed based on rotation?

    Any help would be much appreciated!

    That is very close to what I need, I just need a way to find T (The time it takes to rotate around the circle), but that may need the velocity anyway. I will look around for some sort of formula that might be able to help.

    Thank you very much for the help though!
