Get certain vertices?
I can get a mesh's vertices with mesh.vertices...
But how can i access just certain vertices? like the top vertices.
what are top vertices?
mesh.vertices contains all vertices. you can access them all there. but for filtering out important ones i guess you should somehow mark them.

You really just need an algorithm for grabbing whatever verts you want. Here's an example:
var verts : Vector3[] = mesh.vertices;
//grab all the mesh's vertices
for (var i : int = 0; i < verts.Length; i++) {
if(verts[i].y > someValue) {
//mesh vertices are in local space.
//edit the vertex info. You could get a simultaneous array of vertex colors or uvs for example
verts[i] += Vector3.up * Mathf.Sin(Time.time);
}
}
mesh.vertices = verts;
Wow! that's ingenious! thanks alot!
one question: the verts.y would would that be in world space or local?
vertices returns a collection of points in local space so it would be local. You could turn them into world space if you wanted to, but by default they are in local space.
