Description

Description:
Magnitude of a 3D vector.
Groups:
Math - Vectors

Syntax

Syntax:
vectorMagnitude vector
Parameters:
vector: Array - vector 3D or 2D (since Arma 3 v2.00, z coordinate is defaulted to 0)
Return Value:
Number

Examples

Example 1:
_size = vectorMagnitude [0,3,4]; // returns 5
Example 2:
_speed = vectorMagnitude velocity player; // return velocity of player in m/s _speed = (vectorMagnitude velocity player) * 3.6; // return velocity of player in km/h _speed = (vectorMagnitude velocity player) * 2.23694; // return velocity of player in mph

Arma 3 logo black.png1.22 Algorithm: Vector = [x,y,z]; Result = sqrt ((x ^ 2) + (y ^ 2) + (z ^ 2)); It is recommended to use vectorMagnitude instead of BIS_fnc_magnitude.
