I made circles, squares, triangles, but how do you make a oval? I tried using magnitude and percentages of two radiuses (According to google, that's the plural version of radius.) but i couldnt wrap my head around the way i wouldve done it. Does anyone have an idea or know how to make ovals of some sort? Im going to place it inside a table for terrain generation.

You're looking for an ellipse. [ (x^2 / a^2) + (y^2 / b^2) = 1 ] is the general equation where (a) is distance from the origin (x,y) on the x (horizontal) axis, and (b) is the distance from the origin (x,y) on the y (vertical) axis. lolzmac 207 — 4y
