Technical Q&A QD3D07
Reordering of Vertices in a Mesh

Q: If we iterate through the vertices in a mesh, will the vertices still be in the same order as they were when they were added?

A: The ordering of the vertices does not change until you duplicate the mesh or you write the mesh out. A duplicated mesh (or one that was written out and read back in) does not necessarily have the vertices in the same order as when they were added.
