Unigine.BoundSphere Struct

Notice
The functions listed below are the members of the Unigine.MathLib namespace.

This structure serves to construct the bounding sphere in single precision coordinates.

Instances of this structure are deleted automatically, when necessary.

In case of double precision coordinates, the bounding sphere should be constructed by using the WorldBoundSphere structure. It includes the same functions as the BoundSphere structure, but its functions deal with the double precision coordinates.

To support both single and double precision builds, you can use the WorldBoundSphere structure only. The engine will automatically substitute it with the BoundSphere, if required.
