(...) If I remember right, the way we resolved this for real-world surveying problems and the like was to convert the degrees 180 < x < 360 into negative values relative to 0/north. 350 is -10, 270 is -90, etc. If x1 > 180 then x2 = 360 - x1 This (...)

I know Jake recently got an excellent book on LEGO trains published. I'd love to see something similar, but all about building minifig-scale LEGO towns. I imagine that major sections of the book might include: vehicles buildings landscaping & (...) (21 years ago, 5-Aug-05, to lugnet.publish, FTX)

(...) I think using vector math (as you do above) is the right way to go. As for the special cases, meh, deal with it :) (21 years ago, 5-Aug-05, to lugnet.org.ca.rtltoronto)

(...) Good for you – the new castle Duplos have a lot of really cool parts, which are quite hard to find on bricklink. I'd encourage you to part out a few of each of the other sets in the line, too.
