Expression Gate typo for self-aware angular velocity

[Ergzay]

The functions in the expression gate for self-aware angular velocities are wrong. extangp() returns roll velocity, extangr() returns yaw velocity, extangy() returns pitch velocity. It is a typo in the code by someone who looks like they were in a hurry. Here is the code:

ENT._extangvelp_0 =   function (self) return self:GetPhysicsObject():GetAngleVelocity().x end
ENT._extangvely_0 =   function (self) return self:GetPhysicsObject():GetAngleVelocity().y end
ENT._extangvelr_0 =   function (self) return self:GetPhysicsObject():GetAngleVelocity().z end

The typo is that pitch should be y, roll should be y, and yaw should be z. Corrected version:

ENT._extangvelr_0 =   function (self) return self:GetPhysicsObject():GetAngleVelocity().x end
ENT._extangvelp_0 =   function (self) return self:GetPhysicsObject():GetAngleVelocity().y end
ENT._extangvely_0 =   function (self) return self:GetPhysicsObject():GetAngleVelocity().z end

the reason he probeably made the mistake is because Y is usualy UP (Yaw) and Z is forward (roll)

Actually, you can use angle.p, angle.y, and angle.r as well if you want to make it easier.

[Ergzay]

ZeroZshadow actually no, you are quite wrong there. Z is usually up, Y is usually forward, and X is usually to the right.

Just outs interest what dose this code do?

It's like a gyroscope - read the documentation.
