Documentation for the Rasterizer module.

Example Uses an L{SCA_MouseSensor}, and two L{KX_ObjectActuator}s to implement MouseLook::
	# To use a mouse movement sensor "Mouse" and a 
	# motion actuator to mouse look:
	import Rasterizer
	import GameLogic

	# SCALE sets the speed of motion
	SCALE=[1, 0.5]
	
	co = GameLogic.getCurrentController()
	obj = co.getOwner()
	mouse = co.getSensor("Mouse")
	lmotion = co.getActuator("LMove")
	wmotion = co.getActuator("WMove")
	
	# Transform the mouse coordinates to see how far the mouse has moved.
	def mousePos():
		x = (Rasterizer.getWindowWidth()/2 - mouse.getXPosition())*SCALE[0]
		y = (Rasterizer.getWindowHeight()/2 - mouse.getYPosition())*SCALE[1]
		return (x, y)
	
	pos = mousePos()
	
	# Set the amount of motion: X is applied in world coordinates...
	lmotion.setTorque(0.0, 0.0, pos[0], False)
	# ...Y is applied in local coordinates
	wmotion.setTorque(-pos[1], 0.0, 0.0, True)
	
	# Activate both actuators
	GameLogic.addActiveActuator(lmotion, True)
	GameLogic.addActiveActuator(wmotion, True)
	
	# Centre the mouse
	Rasterizer.setMousePosition(Rasterizer.getWindowWidth()/2, Rasterizer.getWindowHeight()/2)
