My animation should be similar to this video:

But because I´m not familiar with programming, the ears leave the body of the rabit when they spin I tried to find some solution like "spinning an object around a specific point" but I didn´t find one.

My unsatisfying solution until know looks like this:



p.s.: Body and ears were all single objects which I positioned in a room

Can someone please help me?

THANKs

Just to let you know, I also tried it with a path:

path = viz.add(viz.ANIMATION_PATH)
positions = [ [0,0,0], [0.2,0,0], [0.4,0,0], [0.6,0,0]]

for x in range(0,len(positions)):
Ear1.setPosition(positions[x])
cp = viz.add(viz.CONTROL_POINT)
cp.setPosition(positions[x])
path.add(cp,x+1)

path.loop(viz.LOOP)
path.setAutoRotate(viz.ON)

Ear1.link(path)
path.play()

but this is also not what I expected
