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

[John Grden]

HAHA, yes! totaly - see, I knew asking the list made sense :)

yeah you're completely right.  Passing the currentRotationObj and the red5ID
TO starSystemConn when we have both items and THEN calling somehting like

starSystemConn.updateMovement();

Makes sense
