[Papervision3D] adding copyTransform to Matrix3D and getting back a pure array

[Adam Robertson]

I'm no expert on the PV or R5 code, so am just playing Devils advocate here,
but could that functionality be part of your Red5 connection class instead?

E.g.

starSystemConn.updateShipRotation(red5ID, currentRotationObj);

...then the 'R5 PV3D Connection' class (a subclass of a normal R5 connection
class I guess) knows how to convert a Matrix3D to an array or whatever it
needs to work with?

Keeps PV3D code clean, and creates a specific specialised Red5<->PV3D
connection class where all the logic takes place.

Just a thought :)
