Maths (Geometry): LL51

[6502 Second Processor version]

Name: LL51 [Show more] Type: Subroutine Category: Maths (Geometry) Summary: Calculate the dot product of XX15 and XX16
Context: See this subroutine in context in the source code References: This subroutine is called as follows: * LL9 (Part 5 of 12) calls LL51 * LL9 (Part 6 of 12) calls LL51

Calculate the following dot products: XX12(1 0) = XX15(5 0) . XX16(5 0) XX12(3 2) = XX15(5 0) . XX16(11 6) XX12(5 4) = XX15(5 0) . XX16(12 17) storing the results as sign-magnitude numbers in XX12 through XX12+5. When called from part 5 of LL9, XX12 contains the vector [x y z] to the ship we're drawing, and XX16 contains the orientation vectors, so it returns: [ x ] [ sidev_x ] [ x ] [ roofv_x ] [ x ] [ nosev_x ] [ y ] . [ sidev_y ] [ y ] . [ roofv_y ] [ y ] . [ nosev_y ] [ z ] [ sidev_z ] [ z ] [ roofv_z ] [ z ] [ nosev_z ] When called from part 6 of LL9, XX12 contains the vector [x y z] of the vertex we're analysing, and XX16 contains the transposed orientation vectors with each of them containing the x, y and z elements of the original vectors, so it
Returns: [ x ] [ sidev_x ] [ x ] [ sidev_y ] [ x ] [ sidev_z ] [ y ] . [ roofv_x ] [ y ] . [ roofv_y ] [ y ] . [ roofv_z ] [ z ] [ nosev_x ] [ z ] [ nosev_y ] [ z ] [ nosev_z ]
Arguments: XX15(1 0) The ship (or vertex)'s x-coordinate as (x_sign x_lo) XX15(3 2) The ship (or vertex)'s y-coordinate as (y_sign y_lo) XX15(5 4) The ship (or vertex)'s z-coordinate as (z_sign z_lo) XX16 to XX16+5 The scaled sidev (or _x) vector, with: * x, y, z magnitudes in XX16, XX16+2, XX16+4 * x, y, z signs in XX16+1, XX16+3, XX16+5 XX16+6 to XX16+11 The scaled roofv (or _y) vector, with: * x, y, z magnitudes in XX16+6, XX16+8, XX16+10 * x, y, z signs in XX16+7, XX16+9, XX16+11 XX16+12 to XX16+17 The scaled nosev (or _z) vector, with: * x, y, z magnitudes in XX16+12, XX16+14, XX16+16 * x, y, z signs in XX16+13, XX16+15, XX16+17
Returns: XX12(1 0) The dot product of [x y z] vector with the sidev (or _x) vector, with the sign in XX12+1 and magnitude in XX12 XX12(3 2) The dot product of [x y z] vector with the roofv (or _y) vector, with the sign in XX12+3 and magnitude in XX12+2 XX12(5 4) The dot product of [x y z] vector with the nosev (or _z) vector, with the sign in XX12+5 and magnitude in XX12+4
