I've been a while to play with tangent (for the tree object).
I always got a different answer on my calculator.
I just found out that the tangent is given in rad and not in deg.
on the wiki I found the command "rad2deg()", but the answer is totally different!
I have tested it with this object:
object "tan"
{
state "main"
{
let "$x = rad2deg(tan(1))" //deg
let "$y = tan(1)" //rad
textout default 0 000 "<color=ffff00>Deg_tan(1)= $x</color>"
textout default 0 -25 "<color=ffff00>Rad_tan(1)= $y</color>"
}
}
the game answers are:
in deg: 89,23289
in rad: 1,55741
The calculator answers are:
in deg: 0,017455064
in rad: 1,556407725

does this problem happen if, instead of using tan(1), you use sin(1)/cos(1) in the game?
edit: wait... now I looked better at your code and you're using rad2deg on the tangent. It's not going to work.
try tan(deg2rad(1))
