Pivot Block
What if there was a new block in the Motion catigory that allowed you to rotate a sprite around a piviot point.
2 blocks.
1. Rotate sprite around (List of sprites) by (#/Variable)
2. Rotate sprite around (X, Y) by (#/Variable)
This can be usful for making armitures and characters for animations. This can easilly turn hours of animating manually/Struggling with the math, into 2 seconds of setting variables easilly.

Good idea, what about a Set Pivot Point block? This is what it would look like:
set pivot point to x: () y: () :: motion

There's a workaround:
move () steps
turn cw () degrees

Something more like this.
Pivot around x: () y: () steps: () :: motion
And another block could be:
Set rotation around Pivot x: () y: () to () :: motion
That way the variables can control a specific rotation around the custom pivot.

So that way, the center of the sprite can stay the same and pivot around a specific point or around a sprites center.

(#6)Ah okay, I get you.

Yes and No. That may work sometimes, but in a lot of cases, that would't. For example, if you wanted something to rotate when a slider variable is slide, its most likly wouldn't work.

I actually remember seeing a game where you rotates 2 colored balls on 2 differant pivots and seperate them into 2 wheels.
