Gabe, I just dealt with this same issue here: http://groups.google.com/group/away3d-dev/t/9ddef57b20ff93f4
I have two ObjectContainer3Ds. One inside the other. Inside that last ObjectContainer3D I have all my objects that are moving around. To translate the MouseEvent3D.sceneX,Y,Z to local coordinates I have to do the following: var v:Vertex = new Vertex(event.sceneX,event.sceneY, event.sceneZ); // make a new vertex using the event.sceneX,Y,Z var m:Matrix3D = new Matrix3D(); // create a few blank matrix (this could be done with fewer but I wanted to step this through var m2:Matrix3D = new Matrix3D(); var m3:Matrix3D = new Matrix3D(); m.clone(this._innerContainer.transform); // get the translation of the nested ObjectContainer3D m2.clone(this._outerContainer.transform); // get the translation of the outer most ObjectContainer3D // (you would continue the above for every nested level. I only had two levels) m3.multiply(m2,m); // combine these two translations m.inverse(m3); // inverse that result v.transform(m); // then ally the transform to the vertex that represents the localized mouse click. (v.x, v.y, v.z) Now you can see the result here: http://www.directresponsemedicine.com/flexsandbox/trek/ Click and drag to rotate the entire scene. Then click on most any object to "shoot" it. You will see the phasors point at the very point you clicked (not just center object), also the explosion will show at the correct location. The phasor objects are nested three levels deep. I hope this helps.
