I am drawing a rectangle using a emptytexture (1x1) and I use the following:

spriteBatch.Draw(EmptyTexture, new Rectangle((int)MyPosition.X + MyTexture.Width / 2, (int)MyPosition.Y + MyTexture.Height / 2, 100, 2000), null, Color.Red, MyDirection + MathHelper.ToRadians(180), new Vector2(0, 0), SpriteEffects.None, 0.0f);

which does this: enter image description here enter image description here

But now I am trying to make another rectangle next to that one which looks like this: enter image description here

But when you rotate the ship it rotates like this: enter image description here

I've done this by the following:

spriteBatch.Draw(EmptyTexture, new Rectangle((int)(MyPosition.X + MyTexture.Width / 2) + 100, (int)MyPosition.Y + MyTexture.Height / 2, 100, 2000), null, Color.DarkRed, MyDirection + MathHelper.ToRadians(180), new Vector2(0, 0), SpriteEffects.None, 0.0f);

But what I am trying to do is to make the point of rotation of the 2nd one at the middle of the ship like the other one but it's drawn the same.

Solved

spriteBatch.Draw(EmptyTexture, new Rectangle((int)(MyPosition.X + MyTexture.Width / 2) + 100, (int)MyPosition.Y + MyTexture.Height / 2, 100, 2000), null, Color.DarkRed, MyDirection + MathHelper.ToRadians(180), **new Vector2(0, 0)**, SpriteEffects.None, 0.0f);

I had to change the origin

new Vector2(0, 0) to new Vector2(1, 0)

I have no clue why though
