Position + (Same Position>Scaled>Normalized)

Who knows

[simple bronze]

lol

[signal viper]

You do

[dawn lake]

Idk

[signal viper]

Oh

Ok

[agile thunder]

You wouldn’t normally scale a position, just to normalize it

[dawn lake]

I’m not actually sure of a good use case for that. It essentially moves the position in the direction of the position from the origin (the amount it moves is the scalar)

[agile thunder]

Ya, but the vector is normalized, canceling out the scaling entirely

[dawn lake]

Oh yeah lol

[simple bronze]

scale = percewntage and normalize = direction? I belive I saw that somewhere but idk

[dawn lake]

If you could link where you saw that we could try to explain

I forgot to send the link sorry

[agile thunder]

Vector scale multiplies each element by the scalar.
Vector normalize makes all elements 1 or less.

[simple bronze]

ik that but I just didnt remember the point. thanks guys

nvm sorry

[dawn lake]

They aren’t scaling a just a position, they are scaling a difference of positions, in this case it is a direction
