I decoded the base game files (tdbins) and found this function:
QuatEulerXZ()

You also can discover this if you look at data/level/factory/script/laser.lua

I think you mean QuatAlignXZ. I have been meaning to document it and many other functions that I am aware of but haven't documented yet. In the case of that particular function, I wouldn't feel it's okay to make a page for it unless I fully understood the function's behavior, which I don't. This is the reason most of the things I haven't documented already haven't been documented... besides the following reason.
I have been working on redoing the entire wiki with a custom (because I couldn't get Jekyll to work) site generator since the current way of doing things sucks. I don't really want to keep working on this version of the wiki for the same reasons I want to remake the wiki, and because I just feel like I should wait until the remake is done. However, I have lost most of my motivation to continue work on the wiki as I have developed a resentment for Dennis I didn't have when I started, which I'd sound like an entitled brat if I tried to explain the cause of.
I have a big to-do list of things that need documenting, which I'll just go ahead and dump at the end of this post in case anyone is interested.

  • IsShapeDisconnected
  • IsStaticShapeDetached
  • QuatAlignXZ
  • QuatStr
  • UiImageAlpha
  • UiImageOverlayAlpha
  • UiTextInput
  • ,, ., -, and + parameters for input functions
  • 4th parameter for PlaySound
  • All XML level elements and their parameters
  • All entities and their properties and binary format
  • The TDBIN format
  • The TDPTH format
  • Many commands and registry nodes that are listed but not actually documented
  • Pretty much everything for all Mediocre games
