vector.mul

Given a vector, self, and a scalar this function will multiply each component in self by the scalar to create a new vector. This can also be written as self * scalar. If self was not created with vector.new, this function will not work as designed.

ExampleMultiply a vector
Multiples a vector by a number.
Code
<nowiki>
local vectorA = vector.new(240, 71, -3040)
local vectorB = vector.mul(vectorA, 2)
print("My new vector has the components:", vectorB.x, vectorB.y, vectorB.z)
    </nowiki>
Output My new vector has the components: 480 142 -6080
