       Name: TIDY                                                    [Show more]
       Type: Subroutine
   Category: Maths (Geometry)
    Summary: Orthonormalise the orientation vectors for a ship
  Deep dive: Tidying orthonormal vectors
             Orientation vectors
    Context: See this subroutine in context in the source code
 References: This subroutine is called as follows:
             * MVEIT (Part 1 of 9) calls TIDY


 This routine orthonormalises the orientation vectors for a ship. This means
 making the three orientation vectors orthogonal (perpendicular to each other),
 and normal (so each of the vectors has length 1).

 We do this because we use the small angle approximation to rotate these
 vectors in space. It is not completely accurate, so the three vectors tend
 to get stretched over time, so periodically we tidy the vectors with this
 routine to ensure they remain as orthonormal as possible.
