Methods11 

function Direction.opposite(direction: defines.direction) -> defines.direction

Returns the opposite direction

Parameters
directiondefines.direction

the direction

Returns
defines.direction

the opposite direction

function Direction.next(direction: defines.direction, eight_way: nil | boolean) -> defines.direction

Returns the next direction.

For entities that only support two directions, see @{opposite}.
Parameters
directiondefines.direction

the starting direction

eight_waynil | boolean

[opt=false] true to get the next direction in 8-way (note: not many prototypes support 8-way)

Returns
defines.direction

the next direction

function Direction.previous(direction: defines.direction, eight_way: nil | boolean) -> the defines.direction

Returns the previous direction.

For entities that only support two directions, see @{opposite}.
Parameters
