Quat:set

Edit

Sets the components of the quaternion. There are lots of different ways to specify the new components, the summary is:

• Four numbers can be used to specify an angle/axis rotation, similar to other LÖVR functions.
• Four numbers plus the fifth raw flag can be used to set the raw values of the quaternion.
• An existing quaternion can be passed in to copy its values.
• A single direction vector can be specified to turn its direction (relative to the default forward direction of "negative z") into a rotation.
• Two direction vectors can be specified to set the quaternion equal to the rotation between the two vectors.
• A matrix can be passed in to extract the rotation of the matrix into a quaternion.

self = Quat:set(angle, ax, ay, az, raw)
self = Quat:set(r)
self = Quat:set(v)
self = Quat:set(v, u)
self = Quat:set(m)
self = Quat:set()
