	* ~~A unit facing South would return~~ {{hl\|[0,-1,0]}}
	* ~~A unit facing West would return~~ {{hl\|[-1,0,0]}}		For an object facing one of the cardinal directions on perfectly flat ground (parallel to the XY-plane of the world space), [[vectorDir]] returns simple values:
			* {{hl\|[0, 1, 0]}} if the object is facing directly north
			* {{hl\|[1, 0, 0]}} if the object is facing directly east
			* {{hl\|[0, -1, 0]}} if the object is facing directly south
			* {{hl\|[-1, 0, 0]}} if the object is facing directly west
