fun moveTowards(from: Vector4, target: Vector4, maxDistanceDeltaInput: Float): Vector4

Moves a 4D point from towards a target point by a maximum distance specified by maxDistanceDeltaInput.

The maxDistanceDeltaInput is clamped to be non-negative; if a negative value is provided, it's treated as 0.0f (resulting in no movement unless from is already at target).

If from is already at target, or if target is within the (non-negative) maxDistanceDelta distance, this function returns target.
If maxDistanceDelta (after clamping) is 0.0f and from is not at target, this function returns from (no movement).
Otherwise, from is moved along the straight line towards target by exactly maxDistanceDelta units.

Return

A new Vector4 instance representing the new position after moving.

Parameters

from

The starting Vector4 point.

target

The destination Vector4 point towards which from is moved.

maxDistanceDeltaInput

The maximum distance from should move. Negative values are effectively treated as 0.0f.
