Vector3.subLocal()

Instance method on Vector3.

Description​

  • Subtracts the specified Vector3 from this Vector3 and updates this Vector3. |
  • Subtracts the specified Vector2 from this Vector3 and updates this Vector3. |
  • Subtracts the specified X, Y and Z values from this Vector3 and updates this Vector3. |
  • Subtracts the specified value from this Vector3 and updates this Vector3. |

Method Signature​

subLocal(Vector3)
subLocal(Vector2)
subLocal(float, float, float)
subLocal(float)

Mathematical Definition​

Component-wise or runtime-defined transformation based on overload.

Parameters​

  • Vector3: 3D vector input.
  • Vector2: 2D vector used for XY/XZ/YZ component operations.
  • float: scalar numeric input.

Returns​

  • void: returned by overloads of this method.

Mutability​

  • Mutates the current vector (in-place).

Edge Cases​

  • Zero vectors can produce degenerate outputs for geometric methods.
  • NaN and Infinity inputs propagate according to IEEE-754 floating-point behavior.
  • Repeated operations may accumulate floating-point precision error.

Usage Example​

Vector3 a = new Vector3(1f, 2f, 3f);
// Call the method according to your overload requirements.
// Example:
// a.subLocal(...);

Mathematical Example​

Example input/output depends on overload; for vector arithmetic operations this is typically computed per-component.
