hi, i have a question regarding scaling in allegro. how do i make an
"object" shrink or stretch while keeping it at its original position?
for example, in the demo program below, the plane will shrink and grow,
but because the coordinates are multiplied by 1.1 / 0.9, it also moves.
how can i keep it from moving?
