I have a car. The wheels are seperate entitys, how do i make the body of the car stay with the wheels?

Parent the wheels to the car entity using the entityparent command.

sorry, i guess i didnt make it very clear at all, probably shouldnt drink before i make posts about coding and stuff. I have the wheels as seperate entities so that they can follow the terrain. I need to rotate the car to be with the wheels. Sorry about that.

There is a basic demo in the Samples folder under MAK called the Driver demo...This might help. Regards, Eric

im looking for something more along the lines of a function like. Align(CornerEntity1,COrnerEntity2,CornerEntity3,CornerEntity4,EntityToAlign)

I assume there will be a central point, which maintains a distance from all the wheels? If so, et a pivot there, parent the car body to the pivot?
