@acegikmo damn, if it was in pdf (or high enough resolution), and with black text on white bg I would immediately print it in A4 😅👏🏻👍🏻

@acegikmo Does it actually make a difference other than divide the community into a fierce battle?

@cerberus1746 yeah! most 3D games take place mostly on a single plane, ideally that plane should be the xy plane, to simplify the most common projections in code, and to avoid having to transform/swizzle all the time

in my mind, Z should ideally be the least common axis of gameplay

sidescrollers/platformers? Y up

FPS/RTS/MOBA/racing? Z up

@acegikmo

Now make one for color blind people. I don't get what color has to do with it.

@shansterable @acegikmo Maybe have a color plus a distinctive pattern or hatching? That might be an easy fix!

@acegikmo This doesn't help me because my brain is wired up weird, but boosted for those it does!

(When I say weird, I mean I can read backwards text without realizing it's backwards, but I still have to think about right vs left every time.)

@acegikmo

Very helpful, thank you! The only part I didn't understand is why "they're literally the same rotation", does it mean that the left picture visualizes a rotation in a left-handed system while the other depicts the same rotation in a right-handed system?

@kos other way around, but yes!

(left one is right handed, right one is left handed)

@acegikmo I'm afraid I have no idea what any of this means. Math is not my strong suit.
