Help getting 3dVector from azimuth

[o5_ 7]

As the title states Im trying to get a 3d vector from an azimuth. like if my unit was facing north I could do...

 

_azimuth = (getDir player);
_vector  = ([_azimuth] call fnc_azimuth_to_vector);

 

and _vector would be [0,1,0]...

Thanks.

 

PS. I'm aware of vectorDir. I want a function to return the vector based on an azimuth or number, not object.

_dir = direction player;
_vector = [cos _dir, sin _dir,0];

 

Cheers

I know its late but I appreciate the help! I see you on the forums frequently @grumpyoldman, can you help me with my most recent question/post? its regarding registering headless clients to an array as they initialize or join.
