Solved Vector to Direction

Hi, does any one know how to convert vector into a direction (Yaw & Pitch)?

If you have a location you can do location.getDirection(); which returns a vector. But I need the direction (Yaw & Pitch) of a vector?

Does any one know how to do this, by any means?

 

Maybe take a look at this thread

From the resources section.

See end of section 3:

Code:

double pitch = ((90 - player_location.getPitch()) * Math.PI) / 180;
double yaw  = ((player_location.getYaw() + 90 + 180) * Math.PI) / 180;

Notice I don't take any credit for this.

I found this:

Apparently, the Y value of the vector is the pitch. The yaw looks harder to get, but I can think of a quick way to find it- set the direction vector's Y to 0, and then find the angle (Vector.angle()) between that and (0, 0, 0).

Edit: Or you can do Location's getPitch() and getYaw(), didn't think of that.

 

Thanks guys
