Groups:
Uncategorised

Syntax

Syntax:
var1 distanceSqr var2
Parameters:
var1: Object or Position
var2: Object or Position
Return Value:
Number Distance in meters or 1e10 if distance cannot be calculated

Examples

Example 1:
player distanceSqr (leader player)
Example 2:
_distance = sqrt ((x2 - x1) ^ 2 + (y2 - y1) ^ 2 + (z2 - z1) ^ 2); _distanceSqr = (x2 - x1) ^ 2 + (y2 - y1) ^ 2 + (z2 - z1) ^ 2; _distance = [x1, y1, z1] distance [x2, y2, z2]; _distanceSqr = [x1, y1, z1] distanceSqr [x2, y2, z2]; _distance = sqrt ([x1, y1, z1] distanceSqr [x2, y2, z2]); _distanceSqr = ([x1, y1, z1] distance [x2, y2, z2]) ^ 2;
