Syntax

static bool Parallel
(
    const FVector & Normal1,
    const FVector & Normal2,
    float ParallelCosineThreshold
)

Remarks

See if two normal vectors are nearly parallel, meaning the angle between them is close to 0 degrees.

Returns

true if vectors are nearly parallel, false otherwise.

Parameters

Parameter	Description
Normal1	First normalized vector.
Normal1	Second normalized vector.
ParallelCosineThreshold	Normals are parallel if absolute value of dot product (cosine of angle between them) is greater than or equal to this. For example: cos(1.0 degrees).
