• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

Trying to make a landing gear door rotate 90 degrees. All looks good until I play the animation and it pivots on two axis' it seems even those its just a 90 degree rotation. I have reset the xform and that didnt help, so I am kind of stuck on what to do. Any help?

Try changing the Animation Controller to Linear. You may also have to add more intermediate keyframes.
 
Very odd. I broke up the keframes to 1-25-50-75-100 and the issue now only happens between 75-100. If I break up the keyframes more it always only happens in the last frame gap
 
You might want to reset the xform and scale, set the controller to Linear, and redo the animation from the start.
 
What Tom says. To get to the bottom of the present issue you could check if you are using the "local" object axis for all keys all the time, and whether a "move" anim hasn't crept in inadvertently. Also, when doing a new 90 degree rotation, do it for the whole 90 degree sweep first for keys 0 and 100, then add a key at 50.
