πŸ’– identity_quat(3) πŸ’–

okay bestie, welcome to the Allegro manual ✨ this one's short and sweet but it's lowkey iconic so stay with me


🌸 NAME 🌸

identity_quat β€” a global variable holding the identity quaternion, from the Allegro game programming library πŸŽ€


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

#include <allegro.h>

extern QUAT identity_quat;

no cap, that's the whole thing πŸ’…


πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

so like. identity_quat is a global variable and it holds the 'do nothing' identity quaternion 🫢

the vibe? it's the quaternion version of multiplying by 1. the main character who changes absolutely nothing about your rotation. not me saying it does literally nothing and meaning it as a compliment 😭

multiplying by the identity quaternion has no effect. that's it, that's the whole personality, and honestly? obsessed πŸ‘‘

bestie remember: "no effect" is the feature here, not a bug πŸ“

Allegro version 4.4.3 β€” mwah, that's the whole page, you ate it, go forth and multiply (by the identity quaternion, which does nothing, as established) πŸŒˆπŸ’œπŸ§š
