jmonkey旋转和平移

Question

I am having an issue in JME (JMonkey) with rotating then translating two boxes. I have searched the forums and found some similar issues with other languages but I do not understand the answers and that may be because I do not know the other languages. I have two boxes with .lookat( [the other box] ), a rotate, and then a local translation. In my mind the local translation should move the box in the direction it is facing, but it does not it seems to be moving along the world axes. One thing of note; I do not know anything about using matrix math in 3d, some of the answers I found used matrix math to solve the problem. I would like to understand this so that I can avoid this problem in the future. I have reduced my code as small as possible so it does not have any unnessicary parts.

    rootNode.attachChild(blue);
    rootNode.attachChild(red);

    blue.lookAt(red.getWorldTranslation(), new Vector3f(0,1,0) );
    red.lookAt(blue.getWorldTranslation(), new Vector3f(0,1,0) );
}

@Override
public void simpleUpdate(float tpf) {
    blue.setLocalTranslation(new Vector3f( (blue.getLocalTranslation().getX() + .02f), (blue.getLocalTranslation().getY())  , (blue.getLocalTranslation().getZ() )));
    red.setLocalTranslation(new Vector3f( (red.getLocalTranslation().getX() + .02f), (red.getLocalTranslation().getY())  , (red.getLocalTranslation().getZ() )));
}
}

Check out this:

@Override
public void simpleUpdate(float tpf) {
    red.rotate(0, 0.001f, 0);

    // For the red (moves in a circle)
    Quaternion rotation = red.getLocalRotation();
    Vector3f front = new Vector3f(0, 0, 0.01f);
    Vector3f heading = rotation.mult(front);
    red.move(heading);

    /// For the blue (follows the red)
    blue.lookAt(red.getWorldTranslation(), Vector3f.UNIT_Y);
    float velocity = 0.01f;
    Vector3f trajectory = red.getWorldTranslation().subtract(blue.getWorldTranslation());
    trajectory = trajectory.normalize();
    Vector3f offset = trajectory.mult(velocity);
    blue.move(offset);
    System.out.print(offset);

}
