net.WriteVector
Description
Appends a vector to the current net message. Vectors sent by this function are compressed, which may result in precision loss. XYZ components greater than 16384 or less than -16384 are irrecoverably altered (most significant bits are trimmed) and precision after the decimal point is low.
Arguments
Example
Create a serverside command to send a vector to all clients, and a function to receive the vector on the clientside. This example displays the vector compression discussed above.
if SERVER then
util.AddNetworkString("testingvecs")
function testvecs_sv()
net.Start("testingvecs")
net.WriteVector(Vector(10000, 20000, -20000.123456789))
net.Broadcast()
end
concommand.Add("dovectest", testvecs_sv)
elseif CLIENT then
function testvecs_cl(len)
print("RECV: vec = " .. tostring(net.ReadVector()) .. "\n")
end
net.Receive("testingvecs", testvecs_cl)
end
Output: RECV: vec = 10000.000000 3616.000000 -3616.093750
