Convert to a range

NoDoubt

I'm catching on fast to Godot, but still a few rough spots for me to figure out but it's coming along nicely.

Question I have today is -

When I call this line in a script:

var yaw = ent.rotation.y
return yaw

I get a value, but it's a small float value. I want to take that value and convert it into a 0, 360 degree value. Then I need to convert that same new number back into Godot's degree syntax to reapply it.

Basically, i need to grab the Y rotation of my mesh object and convert that number to a -180,180 ( or a 0 , 360, don't really matter for my purpose) . Then after doing what i need to do with that convert number i need to put the new Y angle back into that same Godot degree and reassign it to the mesh.

I hope this makes some sense to someone, I'm horrible at explaining stuff. lol :(

That small value is a radian, a common other measure for angles, it makes using trigonometric functions and transformations easier.

You can get the value that you want using the rad2deg(yaw) function.
