I'm disturbed that I couldn't find an answer via Google that wasn't too complex for my feeble mind to understand (my fault; I suck at math), so I'm asking here.
I'm trying to move a point with an angle/direction/vector relative to its angle. Let's say I have these variables: Dim a as Single ' Point's angle in degrees. Dim x as Single ' Point's x coordinate. Dim y as Single ' Point's y coordinate. Dim xvel as Single ' Point's right/left velocity (+/-). Dim yvel as Single ' Point's backward/forward velocity (+/-). What's a good algorithm to figure out the new values of x and y when adjusted by xvel and yvel relative to a? I've looked through a bunch of vector math "tutorials" but they are very broad and difficult for me to understand. I'm good at many things, but this isn't one of them. Any help will be greatly appreciated. -- Kevin Fishburne Eight Virtues www: http://sales.eightvirtues.com e-mail: sa...@eightvirtues.com phone: (770) 853-6271 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Colocation vs. Managed Hosting A question and answer guide to determining the best fit for your organization - today and in the future. http://p.sf.net/sfu/internap-sfd2d _______________________________________________ Gambas-user mailing list Gambas-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/gambas-user
