Tau has been rejected already by the Luau team; it’s constant folded anyway, so it’s no big loss outside of your readability.
Otherwise, you can always open RFCs for math functions like math.alpha
. You can read more about that process here.
For reference this is the RFC that Zeuxcg wrote for math.lerp
: math.lerp | Luau RFCs.
Though they generally don’t have to be that advanced, depending upon the feature you’re proposing. Here’s one I myself wrote for bit32.byteswap
as an example: bit32.byteswap | Luau RFCs. Notice how its much simpler than the math.lerp one, because the function itself is simpler.
