NodePivot Class
| Inherits: | Node |
This class adds a pivot node that can serve as a pivot point for its children and allows for easy control over their transformation. It has two matrices: one sets the basis of rotation (the pivot point transformation matrix), and another one describes local transformation for children nodes relative to the pivot point.
Notice
It has virtually zero influence on performance and shares all common options that other nodes have.
