# t3d
An implementation of 3D Turtle Graphics with Fluent API. When using the function, imagine that you are sitting on a turtle. You move or turn the turtle from the your viewpoint, not the viewpoint of OpenSCAD coordinates.
For more details, please see [3D turtle graphics](https://openhome.cc/eGossip/OpenSCAD/3DTurtleGraphics.html).
**Since:** 2.1
## Parameters
- `t` : The data of a turtle. `t3d()` with no arguments will return a turtle with the point `[0, 0, 0]` and the unit vectors `[[1, 0, 0], [0, 1, 0], [0, 0, 1]]`.
- `cmd` : It accepts a string or a list of commands.
- Given a string: `"xturn"`, `"yturn"`, `"zturn"`, `"xforward"`, `"yforward"`, `"zforward"`, `"point"` or `"unit_vectors"`. If `"xturn"`, `"yturn"` or `"zturn"` is provided, the `angle` parameter is required. If `"xforward"`, `"yforward"` or `"zforward"` is provided, `leng` is required. `"point"` and `"unit_vectors"` are used to get respective data from a turtle.
- Given a list: `[[cmd1, value], [cmd2, value2], ...]`. For example, `[["xforward", 10], ["zturn", 120]]` will forward a turtle 10mm along the x axis and turn it 120 degrees around the z axis from your viewpoint.
- `point` : Set the position of a turtle.
- `unit_vectors` : Set the unit vectors of a turtle.
- `angle` : Set the angle of a turtle if `cmd` is not provided. Turn a turtle if `cmd` is `"xturn"`, `"yturn"` or `"zturn"`.
- `leng` : Forward a turtle if `cmd` is `"xforward"`, `"yforward"` or `"zforward"`.
## Examples
use <turtle/t3d.scad>;
use <polyline_join.scad>;
leng = 10;
angle = 120;
thickness = 1;
t = t3d(point = [0, 0, 0]);
t2 = t3d(t, "xforward", leng = leng);
t3 = t3d(t2, [
["zturn", angle],
["xforward", leng]
]);
t4 = t3d(t3, [
["zturn", angle],
["xforward", leng]
]);
polyline_join(
[for(turtle = [t, t2, t3, t4]) t3d(turtle, "point")]
) sphere(thickness / 2);
