Which one of these functions (if any) does this:

I have a current position.
I have a target.
I want to move R nodes towards the target.
A vector (x,y,z) is returned.

It is worth noting that Hybrid Dog's shadows mod uses this mod.

I dont know if its good to use the dev wiki for mod documentation.

With the absolute lack of any sort of end-user content, better this than nothing.

+ I added 3 more funtions.

vector.explosion_table(r)
returns a table of positions which could be used for simulating an explosion hole


vector.circle(r)


vector.ring(r)
might work faster than vector.circle

[azentenolara]

in the newest version on linux, do not run the mod

[Hybrid Dog]

What's the problem?
