Yeah, I'd advice using RotateAround. Or Parenting your wheel to an empty gameObject which is set to the center of your wheel and just rotate ths instead of your wheel with the script you already have.

Thanks for the response. I read up on RotateAround but, after applying it - it did not do what I wanted. I tried parenting the "wheel" to an empty game object but, that didnt do it either. I can get the wheel to spin around empty space but, not in a waterwheel like fashion. I even went back into the 3D and reset my "pivot" point to the center but, that also did not work. I ended up just animating it in 3DS Max and reimporting it into Unity.

Perhaps, I don't fully understand rotate, rotation, and/or RotateAround. I used this RotateAround code based on the Unity resource guide:

var vox = 0;

var voy = 0;

var voz = 0;

var vax = 0;

var vay = 1;

var vaz = 0;

function Update() {

transform.RotateAround(Vector3(vox, voy, voz), Vector3(vax, vay, vaz), 20 * Time.deltaTime); } I broke the Vector3's into variables so I could test Vector3.up. forward, left, right, etc... on the fly but, like I stated earlier, I couldnt get it to do what I wanted.

I too am having same problems as GameCherry. Even when resetting the pivot point in 3ds max, the problem of finding the origin/pivot point is still wrong in unity. I also tried using a empty game object as the parent to fix the problem, but no luck. So anybody else care to shed some light on this please.
