I was looking for a way to rotate images when drawing to a miniwindow. Is there any way to do this?

No, not at present. Did you have in mind a simple rotation of 90, 180 or 270 degrees, or something more complex? Simple rotations could handle things like drawing text vertically, or doing a mirror image.

Well, what I had in mind would be a rotation based on moons for Aardwolf, so one would be split into 65ths, another for 50ths, and another for 30ths. Although it occurs to me that I can do this by drawing circles and wedges, with a shape drawn on top of the whole thing.

Eh, it's not like I have much artistic ability to speak of, so it's not like having images would help terribly much.

I think LUA-GD can do rotate image things(copyRotated() method). But before to do that, LUA-GD has to be made a little amendments for MUSHclient and be re-compiled.

according to Nick Gammon's reference:

luagd.dll (with bgd.dll) can be invoke and work out.
