Efficient spawn table creation using STL
std::vector<vector3> spawn_table;
for( int i=0; i<level.getSpawnCount(); ++i )
{
spawn_table.push_back( *( new vector3() ) );
spawn_table.back() = level.getSpawn( i );
}

Angles greater than 114.59 degrees can't possibly be of any practical use
__forceinline float tan(float a)
{
return ::tanf(clamp(a, (-1.0f + FUZZY_EPSILON), (1.0f - FUZZY_EPSILON)));
}
__forceinline double tan(double a)
{
return ::tan(clamp(a, (-1.0 + FUZZY_EPSILON), (1.0 - FUZZY_EPSILON)));
}
We've had this in our code base since 2005 and have shipped 3 games on it, solid!
