I initialize the variables, then call the allIntersections function, which takes those variables as arguments, and I'd been assuming it sets the values of the variables automagically.
Then I'm just using for loops to extract: "for x in hitPoints", etc. Part of the problem is that I don't know how to look at the array all at once, to see how the data is formatted inside. When I try to print the array, I just get a pointer to the array, though I can see there are MFloatPoints inside. When I try to do a get() as suggested by the docs I get c++ errors. :P I'll try the range iterator next though, thanks for that suggestion.
