Bettina Suhr proposed the following answer:
Hi,
I think it is correct that the interaction direction is returning values
between 0 and 179.
Imagine two spheres in contact. The direction of the contact normal
vector will change depending if you calculate it from sphere 1 to sphere
2 or the other way around. If the contact normal vector is e.g. parallel
to the x-axis, how will you decide if the contact has 0 degree or 180
degree?
You can use the plotDirections() function as it is.
Hope that helps,
Bettina
