Vector to Degree calculation

I know how to calculate a vector from a degree. I couldn't find any resources online or in my books on how to calculate a vector to a degree which makes me think it's something really easy I'm just not thinking about.

Convert an Angle to a Velocity
|
I simply want to take a degree I have and turn in into a heading/velocity.
d = 180
How would I turn this into a 3D vector such as x = 0, y = -1, and z = 0?

lua: calling object functions
|
There are a lot of ways to accomplish this. You gave very few details so one obvious way is:
while true do
foo:onEnterFrame()
end
If you are trying to call the function from C++ then more is needed. I haven't used Luna but I would re... |

Good Lua tutorials or books
|
I think that is a good way to go.
You could code enemy behaviors or spells or dialog trees with Lua and leave all the engine code in C++. I am trying to code all my gameplay in Lua and leave everything else to C++ for the most part. |

Good Lua tutorials or books

We use Lua for a lot of things in the game. So for the Tag game mode I have two scrip... |
