trying to make an instance splitting ability

[cinder girder]

@sterile scroll ok figured it out

let me make a detailed description

so I want to split a part based on where you make contact with it, like if you hit it directly in the middle, it splits it in half on that face. I have a way to find the face, but the issue is with Directional Vectors that arent directly indexable like back, left, down. I dont know how I would calculate that

yoooo

this like Laws abilitiy

iirc that uses subtractasync. basically youd make 2 parts that subtractasync the other side

lemme pull it up

the splitting isnt the issue, its about how do I do calculations on vectors I cant directly view tho

like Back which is negative LookVector

doesnt make sense

or are they the same as their counter part

[brazen gull]

LookVector * -1

[cinder girder]

h yes I know

thats not the issue tho

I think im stupid actually
