      Hey.. I think I got it! 😍 you have to set your component axis to the hinge point! omg finally! I tried it and it worked if I wanted an object to have a rotation point from the center, then that object has to have a component with its axis set up at that point!

      Thanks for your help! I did solve it by looking more closely at your file.

        So cool for you πŸ˜‰
        And then use only components as I understand πŸ˜‰

        PS Maybe you can also try Mover.rb
        Some similar & more intuitive but you must go to each scenes for address your object position
        Maybe with this one you will have no problem πŸ˜‰

          My problem is (was) the same; I could make the animation in SU but couldn't export it.

          It's been a month, so you probably already know this: You can export the "proper animation" with Whaat's "Smooth animation" plug-in.
