- Groups:
- Math - Geometry
Syntax
- Syntax:
- var1 distanceSqr var2
- Parameters:
- var1: Object or Position
- var2: Object or Position
- Return Value:
- Number Distance in meters or 1e10 if distance cannot be calculated
Examples
- Example 1:
player distanceSqr (leader player)
- Example 2:
_distance = sqrt ((x2 - x1) ^ 2 + (y2 - y1) ^ 2 + (z2 - z1) ^ 2);
_distanceSqr = (x2 - x1) ^ 2 + (y2 - y1) ^ 2 + (z2 - z1) ^ 2;
_distance = [x1, y1, z1] distance [x2, y2, z2];
_distanceSqr = [x1, y1, z1] distanceSqr [x2, y2, z2];
_distance = sqrt ([x1, y1, z1] distanceSqr [x2, y2, z2]);
_distanceSqr = ([x1, y1, z1] distance [x2, y2, z2]) ^ 2;
If normal distance is calculated according to this formula:
squared distance is calculated according to this formula:
distanceSqr =
