Horiz

From EDukeWiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

The horiz member of the player structure controls the angle at which the player is looking up or down. A value of 100 equates to looking straight ahead; 299 is looking all the way up and -99 is looking all the way down.

Similar to floor/ceiling slopes, the value for horiz represents the tangent of an angle, rather than the angle itself. A horiz difference of 128 corresponds to a tangent difference of one.
