Let me explain the script:

- First we subtract the ninja's position by the guard's position (if it's the other way round, we get the vector from the ninja's position to the guard's position, that's the opposite of what we want). Then we normalize the vector before the dot product.
35 35
- For the guard's direction, we get the guard's current rotation and rotate the vector (0, 0, 1) by that rotation. This is only correct if we're assuming that the guard faces in that direction (0, 0, 1) if his current rotation is 0°, otherwise we use a different vector value. We don't have to normalize because we rotated the vector (0, 0, 1) which already has a length of one.
36
- Finally after we get the dot product (which should be the cosine of the angle formed by those two vectors), we can check if its less than the cosine of half the FOV (half because the direction of the guard is the sits between the two edges of the FOV in the middle, we would use 90° if the FOV is 180°). If its true, then the ninja is in sight, otherwise the ninja is still safe.
