	<description>
		Most basic 3D game object, with a 3D [Transform] and visibility settings. All other 3D game objects inherit from Spatial. Use [Spatial] as a parent node to move, scale, rotate and show/hide children in a 3D project.
		Affine operations (rotate, scale, translate) happen in parent's local coordinate system, unless the [Spatial] object is set as top level. Affine operations in this coordinate system correspond to direct affine operations on the [Spatial]'s transform. The word local below refers to this coordinate system. The coordinate system that is attached to the [Spatial] object itself is referred to as object-local coordinate system.

			Rotation part of the local transformation in radians, specified in terms of YXZ-Euler angles in the format (X-angle, Y-angle, Z-angle).
			Note that in the mathematical sense, rotation is a matrix and not a vector.

Therefore, applying affine operations on the rotation "vector" is not meaningful.
