dmarkwick 261 Posted September 3, 2007 Looking at mission.sqm files, it seems to me that the positional coords are in XZY format. I've noticed the same thing in config settings too. Whereas the general scripting standard is XYZ. Anyone notice this, and have any reason why this is so? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dmarkwick 261 Posted September 4, 2007 Hmm, looks like it is confirmed here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
suma 8 Posted September 4, 2007 In various systems various coordinate systems are used. What we use internally may be even more confusing to you: X Y Z, where X is right, Y is up, Z is forward This closely corresponds to the coordinate system used in 3D rendering. As in scripting you are often concerned about 2 coordinates only (right and forward, or east and north), for scripting we swapped the last two, made [X Z] equivalent to [X,Z,0], and made most coordinates relative to terrain.
