Summary

Function: vector llRot2Up( rotation q );
0.0 Forced Delay
10.0 Energy

Computes the orientation of the local z-axis (up-direction of prim) relative to earth (global coordinate system). It is useful to use it to find out the tilting angle of prim relative to earth (global z-axis).
Returns a vector that is the up vector defined by q, i.e. a unit vector pointing in the positive Z direction

• rotation q

Can be useful to identify the orientation of the local horizontal-plane of the prim, since it's z-axis is always perpendicular to this local horizontal plane.
