GET_VECTOR_ROTATION_QUAT(3alleg4)

✨ get_vector_rotation_quat ✨

okay bestie, welcome to the Allegro manual, section 3alleg4 🎀 this one's a little math baddie and she EATS 💅

💖 NAME 💖

get_vector_rotation_quat — constructs a quaternion to rotate points around a vector. Allegro game programming library. 🦋

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

#include <allegro.h>

void get_vector_rotation_quat(QUAT *q, float x, y, z, float a);

👑 DESCRIPTION 👑

so basically? this function constructs a quaternion for you, and that quaternion will rotate points around the vector you specify with x, y, z — by the angle a that you also specify. 🌀✨

and the tea on that angle: it's given in binary, 256 degrees to a circle format. not your regular degrees, not radians, we're doing the 256-to-a-circle thing. iykyk 🫶

that's literally the whole page, bestie, she's short and she knows it 💅

signing off from Allegro version 4.4.3 — mwah, go rotate something cute 🎀💖✨
