I couldn't figure this one out. Andy's compound used a Select Case and a
rotate vector to convert the orientation of the null to a vector (Thanks
Andy!). I was wondering if you could elaborate on your method if you have
time. Learning the different ways to do things in ICE could come in handy in
the future.

All you need to do is pluck an axis out of the transform and use that as
your direction vector.  You can do that with the matrix to 3D vector
converters.

Subject: set raycast direction with a Null?

 

I have a null I'm using to raycast onto a mesh and it working pretty good,
but I want to be able to adjust the direction by rotating the null and I
can't seem to get this to work. There is a direction to rotation node, but
there doesn't seem to be a rotation to direction node. Any help is
appreciated.
