+[[:types|angle - a fixed-point]] [[zdoom>Definitions#Fixed_point_angles|ZDoom angle]] [[:types|(not degrees or radians)]]
+[[:Multiple_return_values|This function returns multiple values.]]
+===== Description =====
+Converts a 3D vector to a pair of angles (yaw and pitch).
+===== Examples =====
+Make the player look along the vector:
+<code>
+VectorToAngles(1.0, 2.0, 3.0);
+int angle = r1;
+int pitch = r2;
+SetActorAngle(tid, angle);
+SetActorPitch(tid, -pitch); // Note that actor pitch is inverted in ZDoom.
+</code>
+<note tip>Use [[LookAtPoint]] instead of the example code above.</note>
