Godot4_X_BinaryRadian

Binary Radian BRad Addon for Godot 4.X

About

Binary Radians or BRads were often used in classic games taking advantage of the limitations of an unsigned byte to provide angles of 255 directions. Practically this is no longer used as floating point processing is so fast on modern CPUs and GPUs. Netherless this addon provides support to make life a little easier if the need arises to port some legacy code which uses BRads. -Note that Godot does not, to my knowledge, expose the use of a unsigned byte type, so the wrapping is done manually via wrapping methods.
