How do you make that line anyways?
Omg spam!

It would piss a ton of people off that used radians if done your way, and quite frankly there's absolutely nothing that makes degrees better than radians.You would seriously be suprised at some of the people u find complaining about functions not working, some people still program in degrees and know JASS well
All angular math uses radians only (or is dual compatible, in basic cases like complimentary angles), so Degrees are the "locations" of angles.True but degrees and radians are just 2 different ways of expressing angles, where as locations are plain stupid because they are handles that are only used to store 2 real values.
If I catch you on MSN some time, I'll explain them fully to youI didn't understand radians either (haven't learned them in school, just recently did) when I was using radians. I was just thinking of the as another way to express an angle, I didn't have to know what they were and how are they written.
from http://www.scumedit.net/forum/showpost.php?p=12198&postcount=18The reason why radians are used instead of degrees is because they can easily be compared with our arabic number system. I mean 360 degrees makes a circle, thats fantastic but what happens if we want to compare degrees to lets say 3 or 4, how the hell would you relate that, its like comparing apples to oranges it just doesnt work
So the fundamental of radians is that when you use the rule for circumference of a circle, 2 *pi * r = 360. However if we assume r = 1 (since the radius of a circle has no effect on the angle inside), 2 * pi = 360 so pi = 180/2. So to convert from degrees to radians you times the degree by pi/360. If you want to convert radians to degrees you times the radian by 180/pi.
This is the same reason why programming languages always use radians and if you specify a degree the program (or you yourself) has to convert it to radians.
What you need to remember is that radians is an alternate form of degrees, for example sine of 30 degrees is 0.5, and therefore sine of pi/6 is also 0.5. So in other words if you use blizzards trig functions you must use radians if you work with the straight natives, you will notice that every premade blizzard functions for trig convert any degree you input into radianse (like if you use GUI for example). Thats the same reason why u get something like 1000000000 thats cos ur supposed to input pi instead of 180 (which makes a big difference)
I was referring to when Silvenon commented he didn't know radiansI know what radians are

This recource is broken.
The script has a great big error in it. Did you not even check before you updated?
