llRezObject and rotation

I created a number of objects and positioned them so they looked good. I then placed them into a holder object which uses llRezObject on each. When the items rez, most of them come out with the same rotation the object had when I created it stand alone. But, some rez with a different rotation and come out sideways or upside down. Ideas?

The object rezzes with whatever rotation you have the llRezObject() or llRezAtRoot() function. It might be many of your objects have the same rotation (like a zero rotation), and you are using a constant rotation when rezzing. The easiest ways to have them rez with the rotation they had before packing them up are: 1.) contruct all your objects using a root prim with, say, a zero rotation (extra invisible prim for root if needed), and/or 2.) put a script in each rezzed object that remembers a rotation and sets the object to that rotation when it is rezzed (e.g. llGetRot(), llSetRot()).

I got this working by setting a rotation for each rezzed item I was using. What took me forever to debug is why the new rotation I was setting wasn't showing. It turns out, I was using targetomega to make my objects slowly spin. With target omega activated, changes to the objects rotation don't show. I needed to set the rotation and THEN turn on target omega, and turn omega off and on if I need to switch rotations. Just posting in case someone else runs across this issue.
