Hi Black mage, thanks for the awesome script. Would I put this under Materials in the Script editor? Or somewhere else? Most scripts I've seen say to put them under Materials, but IDK if all scripts go there or not. Thanks.
black mage
Yes, place it under Materials.
It's not necessary for all scripts to go there, but most of the time, that place is the safest place to put custom scripts.
