Xray's ZERO COMPASS idea using a different method. Use move tool to move compass. Compass will always point to zero. No rate because not my idea.

s_noonan -- I originally thought about using a magnetic compass like this one, but ended up not doing so because it did not make sense. Anyhow, your compass works better than mine because it points to zero even while holding on to it and moving it. Mine doesn't do that.
Xray -- I had also made one with just a cicle and axle. The circle used the following script: angle = Scene.my.atan2(pos(1), pos(0)). In this case the pointed end of the circle cake always pointed towards zero. The function, Scene.my.atan2(), can be found in this scene.
Yes, I took a look at that function in the console, but I don't understand how it works. Your math abilities are far above mine. _o_
I would like to take credit for that, but I got the Atan2 function definition from Wikipedia.
