======Cardinal Direction======
----

The concept of **cardinal directions** plays an important role due to the grid-based nature of RPG in a Box. There are four cardinal directions: //north//, //south//, //west//, and //east//.

When used in scripting (for example, when manually writing a [[quick script]]), the direction should be specified in all uppercase, i.e. NORTH, SOUTH, WEST, and EAST.

====Examples:====
<code bauxite>
load_map("dungeon", coord[3, 4, 0], NORTH);
</code>
<code bauxite>
rotate_player_to_direction(WEST);
