A3D_GetMoveAngle

The direction a moving physics object travels on the ground, as a facing angle.

native Float:A3D_GetMoveAngle(Physic:physicid);

Parameters

Parameter	Description
Physic:physicid	Physics object to read.

Returns

• The angle in degrees, 0.0 to the north and growing to the west.
• 0.0 when physicid is not a moving physics object.

Remarks

The angle follows the convention of GetPlayerFacingAngle: 0.0 to the north, 90.0 to the west, 180.0 to the south and 270.0 to the east. The vertical speed is left out. An object that moves straight up or down, or not at all, gives 0.0.

Example

Turns a goalkeeper actor to face where the ball comes from.

stock FaceBall(actorid, Physic:ball) {
    if (A3D_GetSpeed(ball) < 1.0) {
        return;
    }

    SetActorFacingAngle(actorid, A3D_GetMoveAngle(ball) + 180.0);
}
