Continuous Heading Rotor Example

Demonstrates a fix for rotators switching their direction whenever you go past a certain point. Use Yaw to rotate craft and see how the arm keeps direction no matter how far you rotate. Look at the variables to see how it works!
EDIT: It has come to my attention that this effect can be achieved by setting "shortestAngle" to "true" in the "JointRotator" section of the rotator's xml, therefore making this demonstration useless 😆

Don't like using something related with sum also do something like this?
@TheTomatoLover When I can. I post updates on the Funky Trees Lab discord server from time to time.

This is so helpful, thank you for sharing!
This is nice!
I didn't know about shortestAngle thing, so I'm glad I visited this post regardless.
Nice
