We've been discussing with @FearMe regarding checking NPC's rotation using getRotation() and representation are as follows:

• North is 1024
• South is 0
• West is 512
• East is 1536

Those numbers might be off but you get the idea. Wouldn't it be easy for us to compare if we had Rotation.NORTH, SOUTH, EAST, WEST, SOUTHEAST, SOUTHWEST, NORTHEAST, NORTHWEST?

It's a fair suggestion, but at the same time anyone who needs to know the angle enough will hopefully have the brain power to figure it out. Something like this is most aptly useful for scripts such as Sorceress' garden.

Yea true end of the day we can figure out most things but it's more efficient to have an API which helps out in terms of coding and allows us to allocate more time into planning out/writing down the logic of the script

What do you mean by this? Something like a getFacingDirection() method?

FearMe was requesting a method to check NPC's rotation, I told him to use getFacingDirection() but he told me he was using getRotation() which would have the values shown above

It goes between 0 and 2047.

0, 256, 512, 768, 1024 and so on. Although it's not a bad suggestion, I think that it's pretty redundant.
