Get the angle of the body.

The angle is measured in radians. If you need to transform it to degrees, use math.deg.

A value of 0 radians will mean "looking to the right". Although radians increase counter-clockwise, the y axis points down so it becomes clockwise from our point of view.

Function

Synopsis

Arguments
