Question

Sometimes I’ll place some things in the editor and want to rotate them around a single pivot point, but they all rotate around their respective centers. It usually turns out like this:

So I have to reposition them manually. Is there a better way to do this?

1. Create a new Node2D in your scene.
2. Put all your Nodes that you want to rotate together as children of this new Node2D.
3. Rotate the new parent Node2D.
