Description
Outputs the points in the proximity of the input position. There are two ways to search, and both can be used at the same time:
- When the Enable Cutoff Distance option is enabled, the node returns the locations of all the points that are within the specified distance of the input position.
- When the Enable Max Number of Points option is enabled, the node returns the location of the N closest points from the input position (where N is specified by the Max Number of Points port).
With both options, the N closest points that are within the input distance are returned. Accessing Data from Array Nodes
