Hi Everybody
I'm trying to simulate a tower crane in Navisworks.
I made the boom of the crane to rotate. I defined a script for it and it works properly.
But when I move the crane to another point and run the script, the boom rotates around the universe! rather than the tower crane’s axis. The reason is that the pivot point of the boom does not move with it. It remains in the original point (stable in the space rather than boom), and as a result in the new position of the crane, the boom rotates around the original point not crane’s axis.
any idea to fix it? i.e. is there any way to define the pivot point for "rotate animation set" relative to the "object" rather than the "space".
