<description>
Given the two 3D segments ([param p1], [param p2]) and ([param q1], [param q2]), finds those two points on the two segments that are closest to each other. Returns a [PackedVector3Array] that contains this point on ([param p1], [param p2]) as well the accompanying point on ([param q1], [param q2]).

<method name="get_triangle_barycentric_coords">
<return type="Vector3" />
<param index="0" name="point" type="Vector3" />
<param index="1" name="a" type="Vector3" />
<param index="2" name="b" type="Vector3" />
<param index="3" name="c" type="Vector3" />
<description>
Returns a [Vector3] containing weights based on how close a 3D position ([param point]) is to a triangle's different vertices ([param a], [param b] and [param c]). This is useful for interpolating between the data of different vertices in a triangle. One example use case is using this to smoothly rotate over a mesh instead of relying solely on face normals.

<param index="4" name="c" type="Vector3" />
<description>
Tests if the 3D ray starting at [param from] with the direction of [param dir] intersects the triangle specified by [param a], [param b] and [param c]. If yes, returns the point of intersection as [Vector3]. If no intersection takes place, returns [code]null[/code].

Given a convex hull defined though the [Plane]s in the array [param planes], tests if the segment ([param from], [param to]) intersects with that hull. If an intersection is found, returns a [PackedVector3Array] containing the point the intersection and the hull's normal. Otherwise, returns an empty array.

<method name="tetrahedralize_delaunay">
<return type="PackedInt32Array" />
<param index="0" name="points" type="PackedVector3Array" />
<description>
Tetrahedralizes the volume specified by a discrete set of [param points] in 3D space, ensuring that no point lies within the circumsphere of any resulting tetrahedron. The method returns a [PackedInt32Array] where each tetrahedron consists of four consecutive point indices into the [param points] array (resulting in an array with [code]n * 4[/code] elements, where [code]n[/code] is the number of tetrahedra found). If the tetrahedralization is unsuccessful, an empty [PackedInt32Array] is returned.
