How to edit terrain in game with raycast.

[tobyplowy]

please describe your setup:

• Terrain type blocky
• Godot version most recent

I'm sorry to open an issue for something as basic as this. I have been reading the documentation for a while now but just can't seem to find it I also downloaded the sample vowel game project but that didn't make sense. It was a bit too complicated for me.

But basically I'm trying to just get the position of the block I'm looking at with a raycast on my camera and ether remove the block I'm looking at or place a block where I'm looking.

I just can't seem to find how to actually edit the terrain.

Sorry for the dumb question.
Ps you may wanna make the info for this more accessable in the documentation unless I'm just too dumb and looked past it hehe

So I have a basic fps player with a camera and a raycast on that camera. How would I use the raycast to place or remove a block?

The doc shows how to use voxel raycasting here, using VoxelTool: https://voxel-tools.readthedocs.io/en/latest/blocky_terrain/#raycast
As for editing what is pointed at, see other functions of VoxelTool.
