Vector Multiply


Operand types:

<vector1>: array
<scale>: number
<resultant vector>: array


Returns a unit vector that 'points' from <vector1> to <vector2>.
|descr= Multiplies 3D vector by a scalar. {{Feature|arma3|Use [[vectorMultiply]] instead.}}
This is a very useful function, as it can be used with the velocity
command to move an object from one position to another.
(ie <vector1> to <vector2>) - ensure both positions are found using getposasl.
