Description

Description:: Multiplies 3D vector by a scalar.
Use vectorMultiply instead.
Execution:: call
Groups:: Vectors

Syntax

Syntax:: [vector, factor] call BIS_fnc_vectorMultiply
Parameters:: vector: Array of Numbers - to format [x,y,z]
: factor: Number
Return Value:: Array of Numbers - result vector

Examples

Example 1:: private _newVector = [[1,2,3], 3] call BIS_fnc_vectorMultiply; // returns [3,6,9]

Additional Information
