Groups:
Interaction

Syntax

Syntax:
setCompassOscillation [angle, frequencyMin, frequencyMax]
Parameters:
[angle, frequencyMin, frequencyMax]: Array
angle: Number - heading deviation angle in radians; the random angle will be picked up from [-angle...+angle] range.
frequencyMin: Number - lower bound of heading change in seconds
frequencyMax: Number - higher bound of heading change in seconds. The actual frequency is calculated similar to: _frequencyMin + random(_frequencyMax - _frequencyMin);
Return Value:
Nothing

Examples

Example 1:
Set compass to oscillate every second within -90/+90 degrees: setCompassOscillation [rad 90, 1, 1];
Example 2:
Change heading every 60 to 90 seconds: setCompassOscillation [rad 180, 60, 90];
Example 3:
Make compass go crazy: setCompassOscillation [rad 360, 0.1, 0.2];
