${Spawn.Look}?

[Vayeco Dynn]

I'm not sure how this is *supposed* to work, but the way I assumed it was supposed to work was that it would tell you the spawn's looking angle relative to YOU (i.e. 0.00 directly at you, 180.00 directly away from you, range 0,359.99). In client, I'm usually getting 0.00 on most spawns, or occasionally something crazy like 489.00. What's the deal with this?

Anyway, here's some macro code for anyone looking to figure this out:

(Note: Return range is 0-180 in the Normalized sub, 0-360 in the original)

Code: Select all

#turbo

Sub Main

   /call MobLookNormalized ${Target.ID}

/return



|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|SUB: Angle from 2 points
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sub SlopeToAngle(float P1X, float P1Y, float P2X, float P2Y)

	/declare Denominator float
	
	/varcalc Denominator ${P2X} - ${P1X}
	
	/if ( ${Math.Abs[${Denominator}]} < 0.01 ) {
	
		/return 0
	
	}
	
	/return ${Math.Atan[${Math.Calc[(${P2Y}-${P1Y})/(${P2X}-${P1X})]}]}

/return

|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|SUB: Angle a mob is looking relative to Me
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sub MobLook(float SpawnID)

	/call SlopeToAngle ${Me.Y} ${Me.X} ${Spawn[${SpawnID}].Y} ${Spawn[${SpawnID}].X} 
	/declare MobAngle float ${Macro.Return}
	
	/if ( ${Math.Calc[${Me.Y} - ${Spawn[${SpawnID}].Y}]} < 0 ) /varcalc MobAngle ${MobAngle} + 180
	
	/if ( ${MobAngle} < 0 ) /varcalc MobAngle ${MobAngle} + 360
	
	/declare Result float ${Math.Abs[${Math.Calc[${MobAngle} - ${Spawn[${SpawnID}].Heading.DegreesCCW}]}]}
	
	/echo Mob is looking: ${Result} relative to Me (${MobAngle} vs ${Spawn[${SpawnID}].Heading.DegreesCCW})
	/return ${Result}

/return

|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
|SUB: Angle a mob is looking relative to Me (normalized from 0-180)
|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sub MobLookNormalized(float SpawnID)

	/call MobLook ${SpawnID}
	/declare Result float ${Macro.Return}
	/if ( ${Result} > 180 ) {
	
		/varcalc Result 360 - ${Result}
	
	}
	
	/echo Mob is looking: ${Result} relative to Me (normalized)
	/return ${Result}
	
/return

.Look just returns look up/down angle -128 to 128 where 0.0 is center.
Never seen 489.0 if u get tht again let us know which mob maybe it's a bug.
You can target yourself and /Echo ${Target.Look} then look into the ground it will return -128
You are probably looking for .Heading.Degrees or .HeadingTo.Degrees

Ah, okay. Sounds like it's working as intended then. I was getting the bogus 489.0 or whatever when chaining a lot of Spawn.Next's, not sure if that's related.

On another note, there is no implementation of what I was looking for in MQ2 which is "What angle is the mob looking relative to me, with 0.00 being directly at me and 180.00 being directly away from me?"

The code I had posted earlier was slightly incorrect, so I'm going to edit it with corrected code in just a moment here.
