ok this is a good one.
I have a ship. it has four shield arcs, fore,left,right,aft
_
( A )
--
the shield arcs are semi circle graphics like the two brackets there, as I turn my ship, would would i get those to draw around my ship in a circle? So that they can remain the correct perspective. this has me stumped, i cant even approach it beyond setting rotation to the ships angle, but this rotates the graphic only, which makes the shield arcs rotate all over of course.
its just hard to figure, I mean the nose of my ship rotates around in a nice circle, which is what id like the shield arcs to do...
