Module `Point`

This module contains the POINT classes.

1) Point#POINT_VEC3 class, extends Base#BASE

The Point#POINT_VEC3 class defines a 3D point in the simulator.

1.1) POINT_VEC3 constructor

A new POINT instance can be created with:

POINT_VEC3.New(): a 3D point.

2) Point#POINT_VEC2 class, extends Point#POINT_VEC3

The Point#POINT_VEC2 class defines a 2D point in the simulator. The height coordinate (if needed) will be the land height + an optional added height specified.

2.1) POINT_VEC2 constructor

A new POINT instance can be created with:

POINT_VEC2.New(): a 2D point.
