I need to figure out a way to calculate a plane in front of an object and then apply a grid with coordinates in it.
Then trace a direction vector from that object towards each position of the grid.
The grid is 15 nodes tall and 20 wide.
If the object rotates, the plane has to move to align itself with it.

Do you need help with the grid making or the plane points where all you know is plane normal position and vector position and direction

Plane points
I wanna figure out where the point is in the world, and then trace a ray from the obj towards that position
The only things i know are the object's position and rotation and the plane's position related to the object (which can vary)
cinder brook
Alright so you’ll subtract the position of the plane by the position of the object
Then you’ll dot that vector with the plane normal
And divide that value by the vector dot value of the normal of the plane with the object direction
That value will be your distance to the point so then just scale the object direction by the distance and add to object position

more like a distance-map think, but ye, ya can use it for that too :D

ye, but last time i asked, ya said ya would rather have people downloading and using your invention than actually explaining how it works
and since i'm trynna learn it, but don't need anything fancy (your camera having a whole lighting system) i just looked for it with other terms :D

and the lighting isnt build in, its all external, u can even make a video saving system and display it on the cam. But ye
