Vector4¶
A 4D vector using floating point coordinates.
描述¶
A 4-element structure that can be used to represent 4D coordinates or any other quadruplet of numeric values.
It uses floating-point coordinates. By default, these floating-point values use 32-bit precision, unlike float which is always 64-bit. If double precision is needed, compile the engine with the option precision=double
.
See Vector4i for its integer counterpart.
Note: In a boolean context, a Vector4 will evaluate to false
if it's equal to Vector4(0, 0, 0, 0)
. Otherwise, a Vector4 will always evaluate to true
.

. This can also be used to round the components to an arbitrary number of decimals.
Operator Descriptions¶
bool operator != ( Vector4 right )
Returns true
if the vectors are not equal.
Note: Due to floating-point precision errors, consider using is_equal_approx instead, which is more reliable.
Note: Vectors with @GDScript.NAN elements don't behave the same as other vectors. Therefore, the results from this operator may not be accurate if NaNs are included.

Vector4 operator * ( Vector4 right )
Multiplies each component of the Vector4 by the components of the given Vector4.

bool operator < ( Vector4 right )
Compares two Vector4 vectors by first checking if the X value of the left vector is less than the X value of the right
vector. If the X values are exactly equal, then it repeats this check with the Y values of the two vectors, Z values of the two vectors, and then with the W values. This operator is useful for sorting vectors.
Note: Vectors with @GDScript.NAN elements don't behave the same as other vectors. Therefore, the results from this operator may not be accurate if NaNs are included.
bool operator <= ( Vector4 right )

vector. If the X values are exactly equal, then it repeats this check with the Y values of the two vectors, Z values of the two vectors, and then with the W values. This operator is useful for sorting vectors.
Note: Vectors with @GDScript.NAN elements don't behave the same as other vectors. Therefore, the results from this operator may not be accurate if NaNs are included.
bool operator == ( Vector4 right )
Returns true
if the vectors are exactly equal.
Note: Due to floating-point precision errors, consider using is_equal_approx instead, which is more reliable.
Note: Vectors with @GDScript.NAN elements don't behave the same as other vectors. Therefore, the results from this operator may not be accurate if NaNs are included.
bool operator > ( Vector4 right )
Compares two Vector4 vectors by first checking if the X value of the left vector is greater than the X value of the right
vector. If the X values are exactly equal, then it repeats this check with the Y values of the two vectors, Z values of the two vectors, and then with the W values. This operator is useful for sorting vectors.
Note: Vectors with @GDScript.NAN elements don't behave the same as other vectors. Therefore, the results from this operator may not be accurate if NaNs are included.
bool operator >= ( Vector4 right )

vector. If the X values are exactly equal, then it repeats this check with the Y values of the two vectors, Z values of the two vectors, and then with the W values. This operator is useful for sorting vectors.
Note: Vectors with @GDScript.NAN elements don't behave the same as other vectors. Therefore, the results from this operator may not be accurate if NaNs are included.
float operator [] ( int index )
Access vector components using their index
. v[0]
is equivalent to v.x
, v[1]
is equivalent to v.y
, v[2]
is equivalent to v.z
, and v[3]
is equivalent to v.w
.
Vector4 operator unary+ ( )
Returns the same value as if the +
was not there. Unary +
does nothing, but sometimes it can make your code more readable.
Vector4 operator unary- ( )
Returns the negative value of the Vector4. This is the same as writing Vector4(-v.x, -v.y, -v.z, -v.w)
. This operation flips the direction of the vector while keeping the same magnitude. With floats, the number zero can be either positive or negative.
