This routine calculates the following: sinYawAngle = sin(playerYawAngle) cosYawAngle = cos(playerYawAngle) We can use these to create a rotation matrix that rotates the yaw angle from the player's frame of reference into the global 3D coordinate system.
Arguments: (A X) Player yaw angle in (playerYawAngleHi playerYawAngleLo)
