Rotate Around Player while looking forward

Question

Hello there,

I have a player(asteroid) that have 3 smaller asteroids (shielding player) as a children of player so when I rotate the player the smaller asteroids rotate around player. the problem is that they rotate as well.
what I wanted is that they should rotate-around the player when player rotate but should not change their own rotations; they should look straight. just like image below

Similar effect to the I want:

any help is much appreciated

Instead of having them rotate around the object, maybe you should have them follow a path parented to the player. Making them only move on the path when the player rotates might be tricky, though.

Hope this is helpful.

Thank you for replying, but there are several other functionality that relay on this, like player angular velocity that accelerate and decelerate base on power-ups. any other Idea?

Answer 1

Have you tried this?

$child.global_rotation = 0.0

Yep, this should be what you're after...
