How to get adjacent vertices

[mihi0315]

Hi,

Is there a way to get vertices adjacent to a selected vertex in maxscript?

It's like Houdini's "neighbours"

You might want to use octree/kdtree. Go through this thread:
https://maxscriptbook.com/community/maxscript/%5bmaxscript%5d+kdtree.+can+we+make+it+faster%3f/
there is a ton of related code.

(
	selObj = selection[1]
	selVertBA = (polyop.getVertSelection selObj)
	vertEdgesBA = polyop.getEdgesUsingVert selObj selVertBA
	adjacentvertsBA = polyop.getVertsUsingEdge selObj vertEdgesBA
	polyop.setVertSelection selObj adjacentvertsBA
)

thank you.
I'll use it as a reference.

wonderful!
This is exactly what I wanted to achieve.

Keep in mind that this will select only vertices which have common edges with the selected vert.
