Summary

Function: rotation llEuler2Rot( vector v );

Returns a rotation representation of Euler Angles v.

• vector v

Specification

The Euler angle vector is converted to a rotation by doing the rotations around the 3 axes in Z, Y, X order. So llRot2Euler(<1.0, 2.0, 3.0> * DEG_TO_RAD) generates a rotation by taking the zero rotation, a vector pointing along the X axis, first rotating it 3 degrees around the global Z axis, then rotating the resulting vector 2 degrees around the global Y axis, and finally rotating that 1 degree around the global X axis.

Examples

default
{
    state_entry()
    {
        vector input = <73.0, -63.0, 20.0> * DEG_TO_RAD;//not advised to make your own quaternion
        rotation rot = llEuler2Rot(input);
        llSay(0,"The Euler2Rot of "+(string)input+" is: "+(string)rot );
    }
}
