<member name="rotation" type="Vector3" setter="set_rotation" getter="get_rotation" default="Vector3(0, 0, 0)">
Rotation part of the local transformation in radians, specified in terms of Euler angles. The angles construct a rotaton in the order specified by the [member rotation_order] property.
[b]Note:[/b] In the mathematical sense, rotation is a matrix and not a vector. The three Euler angles, which are the three independent parameters of the Euler-angle parametrization of the rotation matrix, are stored in a [Vector3] data structure not because the rotation is a vector, but only because [Vector3] exists as a convenient data-structure to store 3 floating-point numbers. Therefore, applying affine operations on the rotation "vector" is not meaningful.
