Hello all, I’m trying to get ceirtain points that only have a X and Y value (Z = 0) placed on a surface. So that my points get the same X and Y value as before only now with the Z value following the hight from the surface in the location where the points are located. I can’t seem to find a node for this, and i’m not skilled in Python. Is there anything i can use to accomplish my goal? ---
