what i'm trying to figure is this sort of function:

function drawRay(initial_X, initial_Y, angle, rayLength)

rayX = ?
rayY = ?
drawLine(initial_X, initial_Y, rayX, rayY, r, g, b)

endfunction

thanks for any help

You're on the right track, sort of. It's simpler than you think.



If it happens to draw in the opposite direction, just swap sin and cos.
