Detailed description
This call retrieves the face of the bounding box intersected by the mouse. This is always the closest face to the screen.
The faces of the bounding box are ordered according to the following table:
| Face | Position |
|---|---|
| 0 | XY plane, Z=-1 |
| 1 | YZ plane, X=-1 |
| 2 | XZ plane, Y=-1 |
| 3 | XZ plane, Y=1 |
| 4 | YZ plane, X=1 |
| 5 | XY plane, Z=1 |
Each face, when added to the opposite face on the cube, adds up to 5 (so each YZ face = 1 + 4 = 5).
