    Hi

    I am currently working on a spaceship game and realised a problem-which is probably my model. When I rotate my ships using rotate comand in script, they dont rotate around their center point but around their corner and it doesnt look good on small ships. How can I fix that problem?

    Thanks Have Fun

    An object rotates around its anchor point. You could move the anchor point to the ship's centre in the 3D modelling app. Alternatively, put it inside a parent object in Unity and position the child so its centre is at the parent's anchor point. Then, use the parent for all movement and rotation.
