How to rotate a square?

Jul 23, 2012 8:33 PM

hello everyone.

    The reason it only worked once is because you were assigning it a fixed value unstead of changing the value each time...

     

    square.rotation = 90;

     

    tells its rotation value to be 90 degrees.  After you reach it the first time, it is at 90 degrees all the time after that.  Instead, to have it change by 90 degrees each time... 

     

    square.rotation += 90;
