🧭 Rotator

A container for rotation information (Pitch, Yaw, Roll). All rotation values are stored in degrees.

info

Les Rotator sont compressés en interne et automatiquement, ce qui réduit leur taille dans le réseau jusqu'à 90 %. Leurs composants sont généralement compressés en 1 octets chacun (à quelques exceptions où nous avons besoin de plus de précision).

🎒 Examples

local new_rotator = Rotator(-90, 153, 24.5)

🛠 Constructors

Default Constructor

local my_rotator = Rotator(pitch?, yaw?, roll?)
TypeNameDefaultDescription
numberpitch0Pitch
numberyawpitchYaw
numberrollpitchRoll

🧽 Properties

TypeNameDescription
numberPitchRotation around the right axis (around Y axis), Looking up and down (0=Straight Ahead, +Up, -Down)
numberYawRotation around the up axis (around Z axis), Running in circles 0=East, +North, -South.
numberRollRotation around the forward axis (around X axis), Tilting your head, 0=Straight, +Clockwise, -CCW.

GetForwardVector

Get the forward (X) unit direction vector from this component, in world space.

— Returns Vector (the forward direction).

local ret = my_rotator:GetForwardVector()

GetRightVector

Get the right (Y) unit direction vector from this component, in world space.

— Returns Vector (the right direction).

Quaternion

Get Rotation as a quaternion.

— Returns Quat (the rotation as a quaternion).

local ret = my_rotator:Quaternion()

GetNormalized

Returns a new Rotator normalized.

— Returns Rotator (the normalized Rotator).

local ret = my_rotator:GetNormalized()

IsNearlyZero

Checks whether rotator is near to zero within a specified tolerance

— Returns boolean (whether the rotator is nearly zero).

local ret = my_rotator:IsNearlyZero(tolerance?)
TypeParameterDefaultDescription
numbertolerance?0.000001Tolerance to check

IsZero

Checks whether all components of the rotator are exactly zero
