Description
Rotates the dummy by an arbitrary axis that is specified by the *createplane() command.
Inputs
- entities
- The entity type selected that recognizes the dummy. Currently, only components is supported.
- collectorid
- The id of the entity recognizing the dummy.
- plane
- The plane defining the arbitrary axis that the dummy rotates about.
- increment
- The number of degrees to rotate the dummy.
Example
To rotate about the x axis by 90 degrees, specify a component that exists within the dummy (and is included in the parent/child system):
*createplane(1,1.0,0.0,0.0,0.0,0.0,0.0)
*rotatedummy(components,1,1,90)
Errors
None.
