number- the angle of the vector
number- the speed of the vector (in % of c) |
| Returns |
velVector- returns the new velocity vector |
| Category |
vector operator, system

| Description |
A useful wrapper function for other velocity operator functions that require messy velVector arguments. |
| Example |
(objSetVel gPlayerShip (sysVectorPolarVelocity (shpGetDirection gPlayerShip) 50))
Will cause the playership to scream forward at 50% lightspeed. |
| Comment |
A necessary function if you are using objIncVel or objSetVel which take velVectors as their velocity arguments. |
