get_translation_matrix(3)

✨ get_translation_matrix(3) ✨

okay bestie, so this is a page straight out of the Allegro manual — the Allegro game programming library — and it's all about the little glow-up where you make a matrix that shoves stuff sideways. 🦋

💖 NAME 💖

get_translation_matrix, get_translation_matrix_f — constructs a translation matrix. Allegro game programming library. no cap, that's the whole job. 💅

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <allegro.h>

void get_translation_matrix(MATRIX *m, fixed x, fixed y, fixed z);

void get_translation_matrix_f(MATRIX_f *m, float x, float y, float z);

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

okay so picture this: you call it, and it constructs a translation matrix, storing it right there in m. that's it, that's the whole vibe. ✨

and here's the tea — when you apply that matrix to the point (px, py, pz), it produces the point (px+x, py+y, pz+z). literally just adds each number to its matching coordinate. math said "slay" and meant it. 🔥

in other words: it moves things sideways. iconic behaviour tbh. 🫶

and that's the whole page, bestie 💜 this was Allegro version 4.4.3 dropping get_translation_matrix(3) — go forth and translate your little hearts out. mwah. 🎀💖✨
