Edit

Returns a direction vector for the Curve given a parameter t from 0 to 1. 0 will return the direction at the first control point, 1 will return the direction at the last point, .5 will return the direction at the "middle" of the Curve, etc.

x, y, z = Curve:getTangent(t)

Arguments

tnumber Where on the Curve to compute the direction.

Returns

NameTypeDescription
xnumber The x position of the point.
ynumber The y position of the point.
znumber The z position of the point.
