Hello,

I have bin wrestling with this for days and i hope someone of you can help me out!

The problem i have is that i cant get a correct rotation from the rigidbody.

If i trace this:
car.getRigidBody().rotationY

i goes to 90 and -90 instead of the 0 to 360 i need.

I know of the gimbal lock but i have no idea what its about.

Is there any way to get the rotation from the rigidbody so i can use it in my calculations?

I am using:
away3d 4.0.9 gold
awayphysics-core-fp11-master

Big thanks in advance!

Regards

you can write your own getRotationY method:

public function getRotationY(body:AWPRigidBody):Number{
  if(body.front.dotProduct(Vector3D.Z_AXIS)>=0){
return 90 - body.rotationY;
  }else{
return body.rotationY + 270;
  }
}
