God doesn't play dice
Numsgil:
Sarcasm aside... :rolleyes:
Sin and Cos are the only things missing that would allow you to do this kind of thing. And if you know the angle you want to go in terms of x,y components you can do it in 2.35 no problem.
PurpleYouko:
But sarcasm is the best part of it.
I just want to know what would be the point of accelerating off to some angle that you aren't looking at. You might just run into a predator or a brick wall or anything really.
This kind of behaviour would almost certainly be weeded out as inefficient by evolution anyway even if it were added to the DNA language.
I would also like to know what kind of rocket propulsion system on a space vehicle, would be able to make this kind of maneouvre anyway. This is unrealistic in DBs or in spacecraft since rocket motors tend to be fixed in relationship to the rocket bearing them. Small thrusters may be able to rotate a little bit but not to face in every conceivable direction.
:D PY :D

Hey, Bots proposed the problem. I'm just showing how it'd work in the current system.
I have no idea what possible use it'd be.
It could be that you want to move towards something like you do in FPS, by strafing. That way you can check your back as you move towards a food source.
Still, there are better ways to do it.

Right like moving forward while shooting at an angle. Now that is an idea that I like.
:D PY :D

That's where .aimshoot comes in. Definately has some fun possibilities.
