LiveOnTheFly Posted April 5, 2009 Share Posted April 5, 2009 I have object X object X is moving at a angle of 172 How can I calculate object X's next position? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TerarinK Posted April 5, 2009 Share Posted April 5, 2009 Well where is the object X at to start off from and what is angle relative to? If you say Object X is at 0,0 moving 172 degrees at relative to 0,0 grid based and we are presuming it would be decimals. That would mean your ship turned and is going 8 degrees on the upper axis so your going and you would reach 1,-.09 as your next target however if you need both of them digits then a rough estimate of 11,-1 would be your next full int digit 0x576520616C6C206469652C206C697665206C69666520617320696620796F75207765726520696E20746865206C617374207365636F6E642E Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LiveOnTheFly Posted April 5, 2009 Author Share Posted April 5, 2009 Sorry for being stupid and not using the search button(silly me). I found what I needed Func Angle($x1, $y1, $Ang, $Length) Local $Return[2] $Return[0] = $x1 + ($Length * Cos($Ang / 180 * 3.14159265358979)) $Return[1] = $y1 - ($Length * Sin($Ang / 180 * 3.14159265358979)) Return $Return EndFunc ;==>Angle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
