Multiple costume centers

I think it would be very helpful if, in the next version of Scratch, one could set multiple costume centers, one that would be the point on which the sprite rotates, the other the point where other sprites go when one uses a "go to___" block.

Re: Multiple costume centers

just use the center for where the sprite rotates, and adjust where you want it to move.

Re: Multiple costume centers

It would be useful to have multiple centers, but it would probably be complicated.

Re: Multiple costume centers

It is possible to make this with trigonometry, but it's quite complicated. As per your suggestion, I think it'd be a bit strange and confusing, especially for new users, when they find that their sprites rotate around a different point than they move.
