This would be quite simple actually if you used constraints smartly. Mostly just orient and aim constraints. Hmmm... interesting... I'll definitely have to tinker around with your idea. I have very very little experience with constraints. If you don't mind, please see the project I just posted in the WIP area: https://simplymaya.com/forum/showthread.php?t=36209. This will give you a better idea of the kind of sims I'm going for. I wonder if this project would be an ideal candidate for constraints? Thanks, NextDesign!
