vector
Built-in vector library, loaded by requiring vector
Functions:
vector
vector(x: number, y: number, z: number)
: vector
x
number
X coordinate of 3D position
y
number
Y coordinate of 3D position
z
number
Z coordinate of 3D position
Creates a new vector object. Please note that you need to load the built-in vector library with require "vector"
:angles
vector_object:angles()
: number, number, number
Converts the vector to an angle and returns the pitch, yaw and roll
:dist2d
vector_object:dist2d(other: vector)
: number
other
vector
Other vector
Returns the cross product / vector product of itself and another vector
:dist
vector_object:dist(other: vector)
: number
other
vector
Vector to calculate the distance to
Returns the 3d distance to another vector
:dist
vector_object:dist(other: vector)
: number
other
vector
Vector to calculate the distance to
Returns the 2d distance to another vector
:dot
vector_object:dot()
: number
Returns the dot product of the vector
:init
vector_object:init(x: number, y: number, z: number)
: vector
x
number
X coordinate of 3D position
y
number
Y coordinate of 3D position
z
number
Z coordinate of 3D position
Overwrites the X, Y and Z coordinates of the vector object, returning itself
:init_from_angles
vector_object:init_from_angles(pitch: number, yaw: number[, roll: number])
: vector
pitch
number
Pitch component of angle
yaw
number
Yaw component of angle
roll
number
Roll component of angle
Converts the pitch, yaw and roll passed to a forward vector and overwrites the X, Y and Z coordinates with that. Returns itself
:length
vector_object:length()
: number
Returns the length (magnitude)
:length2d
vector_object:length2d()
: number
Returns the 2d length (X and Y components)
:length2dsqr
vector_object:length2dsqr()
: number
Returns the squared 2d length (X and Y components, faster than :length2d)
:lengthsqr
vector_object:lengthsqr()
: number
Returns the squared length (faster than :length)
:lerp
vector_object:lerp(to: vector, percentage: number)
: vector
to
vector
Vector to lerp to
percentage
number
Interpolation percentage (0-1)
Interpolates by the specified percentage between the 2 vectors.
:normalize
vector_object:normalize()
Normalizes the vector, dividing it by it's own length (resulting in a unit vector with length = 1)
:normalized
vector_object:normalized()
: vector
Returns a new unit vector, divided it by it's own length
:scale
vector_object:scale(scalar: number)
scalar
number
Scalar value
Scales the vector by the specified value.
:scaled
vector_object:scaled(scalar: number)
: vector
scalar
number
Scalar value
Returns a new vector, scaled by the specified value.
:to
vector_object:to(other: vector)
: vector
other
vector
Other vector
Returns the forward vector from itself to another vector
:unpack
vector_object:unpack()
: number, number, number
Returns the X, Y and Z coordinate of the vector object. They can also be accessed by vec.x, vec.y, etc
:vectors
vector_object:vectors()
: vector, vector
Returns the right and up vector of a forward vector
