'''Syntax:''' | |||
GetAngle axis | |||
'''Example:''' | |||
GetAngle Z | |||
Returns the current world rotation angle of the object on the selected axis (X, Y, or Z) in float. | |||

*'''Special Notes (relative to GetAngle called upon the player)''' | |||
**Z angle returns a value from 0 to 360 depending on the player's current heading. Z angle is measured with the positive ''y''-axis as 0 and increasing clockwise from there. In the Wasteland worldspace, this is North, however, the same is not true of interiors (other exterior worldspaces have not been tested) - GetAngle is based on the game's coordinate system and the Compass is based on the NorthMarker object in each cell. Therefore, GetAngle Z is only useful for determining compass directions in the exterior Wasteland worldspace. | |||
**Trigonometry with the Z angle could be done using the following conversion formula: | |||
float GetAngleZ ;the game's version | |||
float TrigAngleZ ;the rest of the world's interpretation of the same | |||
set GetAngleZ to player.GetAngle Z | |||
if ( GetAngleZ < 90 ) | |||
set TrigAngleZ to 90 - GetAngleZ | |||
else | |||
set TrigAngleZ to 450 - GetAngleZ | |||
endif | |||
**X angle returns a value (theorically) from -90 to 90. The true in-game range is -89 to 89, with -89 if the player is looking above himself, and 89 if player is looking at his feet. Note that the player actually ''is'' looking 89 degrees above or below horizontal - you cannot look exactly up or exactly down in game. | |||
