Hello!

I have this code:

func _ready():
var mesh = []
var planemesh = PlaneMesh.new()
planemesh.surface_set_material(0, SpatialMaterial.new())
var m = 32
for a in range(0,m):
	mesh.append(MeshInstance.new())
	mesh[a].set_mesh(planemesh)
	mesh[a].set_script(preload("res://MeshInstance.gd"))
	add_child(mesh[a])
	
for a in range(0,m):
	
	mesh[a].translate(Vector3((a*32)-16,0,(a*32)-16 ))
	

pass # Replace with function body.

I want to generate geometry. But when the MeshInstance is inserted into the scene then I get an error about the MeshInstance missing a Mesh and a Surface on that Mesh.
In the MeshInstance.gd above I set up the MeshInstances ready function to set a texture based on the MeshInstance’s position.

Hi,
your code runs fine here. What does “res://MeshInstance.gd” does?
