EulerRotationCurve

Inherits from: Instance → Object

A EulerRotationCurve represents a 3D rotation curve through a group of three FloatCurves. The rotation is decomposed in three Euler angles channels that can be accessed via EulerRotationCurve:X(), EulerRotationCurve:Y(), and EulerRotationCurve:Z(). The three axes can be sampled simultaneously via EulerRotationCurve:GetAnglesAtTime(), returning the three Euler angles as a Vector3. Similarly, EulerRotationCurve:GetRotationAtTime() samples all channels simultaneously but returns a CFrame rotated by X, Y, and Z according to the specified rotation order.

EulerRotationCurve:GetAnglesAtTime

Samples the three FloatCurves (X, Y, Z) at the passed time argument and returns the result as three Euler angles. If a channel curve is missing or no key is found in the curve, the channel is evaluated as nil.

Parameters

Returns

TypeDescription
ArrayAn array of three values holding the sampled X, Y, and Z Euler angles; any channel whose curve is missing or has no key at time is returned as nil.
