Custom Types

Orbit does not use types like Vector3D or ImColor in the traditional sense. You cannot access a Vector3D element using the following code.

xxxxxxxxxx

local function Function()

  local Vector = Vector3D(1.0, 1.0, 1.0)

  Print(tostring(Vector.x)) --this will give you an error 

end

Orbit stores these types in arrays instead. Be sure to remember that tables start with an index of 1 in LUA, unlike other programming languages.

xxxxxxxxxx

local function Function()

  local Vector = Vector3D(1.0, 1.0, 1.0)

  Print(tostring(Vector[1])) --this will give you the value x

end

xxxxxxxxxx

local Vector = Vector2D(1, 1)

Print(tostring(Vector[1])) --X value 

Print(tostring(Vector[2])) --Y value
