get_dir proc

Format

get_dir(Loc1, Loc2)

Returns

The direction from Loc1 to Loc2. Possible results are NORTH, SOUTH, EAST, WEST, NORTHEAST, NORTHWEST, SOUTHEAST, and SOUTHWEST.

Args

• Loc1: An object on the map.
• Loc2: An object on the map.

If the direction is not directly lying along one of the four primary cardinal directions, the result will become the nearest diagonal direction (eg. if Loc2 is mostly north but a little to the east of Loc1, the direction returned will be NORTHEAST).
