rotating actor

I have an actor that is a long rectangle. how can i make it rotate and stay constrained in the middle even when something collides with it?

Create a self attribtute call start.y and start.x

Then place at the top of your actor change attribtue
start.x to self.position.x and start.y to self.position.y

Then two constrains Self.postion.x to start.x and self.position.y to start.y

Then you could make your actor rotate a number of ways. one nice smooth one being a rule

When self.rotation = 0
--interpolate self.rotation to 360 and then you can use the duration to set the speed. if you want to go the other way use -360 instead of 360.

You could also avoid a lot of the change and constrains if you uncheck moveable but sometimes that messes with the physics of the other actors that interact with the rotating platform.
