Vector
Center(vec2)
Description:
Returns the midpoint between this vector and the supplied vector.
Parameters:
vec2 (Vector) – The vector to average with this vector.
Realm:
Shared
Returns:
Vector – The center point of the two vectors.
Example Usage:
-- Average two vectors to find the midpoint
local midpoint = vector_origin:Center(Vector(10, 10, 10))
print(midpoint) -- Vector(5, 5, 5)
Distance(vec2)
Description:
Calculates the distance between this vector and another vector.
Parameters:
vec2 (Vector) – The other vector.
Realm:
Shared
Returns:
number – The distance between the two vectors.
Example Usage:
-- Measure the distance between two points
local dist = vector_origin:Distance(Vector(3, 4, 0))
print(dist) -- 5
RotateAroundAxis(axis, degrees)
Description:
Rotates the vector around an axis by the specified degrees and returns the new vector.
Parameters:
axis (Vector) – Axis to rotate around.
degrees (number) – Angle in degrees.
Realm:
Shared
Returns:
Vector – The rotated vector.
Example Usage:
-- Rotate a vector 90 degrees around the Z axis
local rotated = Vector(1, 0, 0):RotateAroundAxis(Vector(0, 0, 1), 90)
print(rotated) -- Vector(0, 1, 0)
Right(vUp)
Description:
Returns a normalized right-direction vector relative to this vector.
Parameters:
vUp (Vector, optional) – Up direction to compare against. Defaults to vector_up.
Realm:
Shared
Returns:
Vector – The calculated right vector.
Example Usage:
-- Get the right direction vector
local rightVec = Vector(0, 1, 0):Right()
print(rightVec)
Up(vUp)
Description:
Returns a normalized up-direction vector relative to this vector.
Parameters:
vUp (Vector, optional) – Up direction to compare against. Defaults to vector_up.
Realm:
Shared
Returns:
Vector – The calculated up vector.
Example Usage:
-- Get the up direction vector
local upVec = Vector(1, 0, 0):Up()
print(upVec)
