GetVehicleRotation

GetVehicleRotation

Description:

Function GetVehicleRotation get the rotation of a vehicle on the XYZ axis.

There is no 'set' variation of this function; you can not SET a vehicle's rotation (apart from the Z angle) To use this function you must define it. This function works accurately only on occupied vehicles. The reason is that GetVehicleRotationQuat starts returning an invalid quaternion after an unoccupied vehicle's position has been updated by a player.

Parameters:

(vehicleid, &Float:rx, &Float:ry, &Float:rz)

int

vehicleid

The ID of the vehicle to get the rotation of.

float

rx

The variable to store the X (pitch) rotation, passed by reference.

float

ry

The variable to store the Y (roll) rotation, passed by reference.

float

rz

The variable to store the Z (yaw) rotation, passed by reference.

Return Values:

This function does not return any specific values.

Examples:

Example 1

//GetVehicleRotation Created by IllidanS4
stock GetVehicleRotation(vehicleid,&Float:rx,&Float:ry,&Float:rz){
	new Float:qw,Float:qx,Float:qy,Float:qz;
	GetVehicleRotationQuat(vehicleid,qw,qx,qy,qz);
	rx = asin(2*qy*qz-2*qx*qw);
	ry = -atan2(qx*qz+qy*qw,0.5-qx*qx-qy*qy);
	rz = -atan2(qx*qy+qz*qw,0.5-qx*qx-qz*qz);
}
