Way to spawn things on a sphere?

[TechLord]

@ol_N1gHtM4r3_lo

Is there anyway to randomly place things round a spherical object for planet procedural generation? It won’t be quit spherical but have dips in it, it will also be low poly.

Thanks!

Hello @ol_N1gHtM4r3_lo,

Has dips and hills? Is it a Singular Mesh? Is it a Spherical Voxel Planet? If a Singular Mesh, you could possibly use Line Trace from the center of the Planet, pointing in a Random Direction outward. Use collision point between LineTrace and Planet to spawn the object.
