Player Rot and NPC Rot

yahwho · Oct 26th 2018

@red51 am I right to believe the player rotation and npc rotation are not the same?

I'm using Vector3f posP = new Vector3f(0.0f,0.0f,1.0f); to calculate player direction with multLocal(posP)

but I have to use Vector3f posN = new Vector3f(0.0f,0.0f,0.25f); to calculate npc direction with multLocal(posN)

It's fine, I've got it working using that, just wondering if this will change (I have noted NPC NaN fixes on the console)

Hmm... what do you mean exactly? The getRotation() function in both the player and npc class return the actual player/npc rotation (as a quaternion). Although these classes also provide a getViewDirection() function which returns the actual view direction as a Vector3f (same as multiplying a unit vector with the quaternion)

Hmm I'll send you the code snippet when I'm on my workstation. It's probably me doing something weird.
