Default Re: OT - math question.

Umm... if you are moving it in a random direction, should you not be able to see where it is moving to?

Either way, measure the vector between the start point and the end point. You can get the angles from this vector with pythagorian theorm used a few times. If you have coordinates, no measurement is required, just calculations.
