This command will set the individual normal of a point within the matrix.

SET MATRIX NORMAL Matrix Number, TileX, TileZ, NX, NY, NZ

Matrix Number

Integer
The matrix number

TileX

Integer
The x position

TileZ

Integer
The y position

NX

Float
The normal x

NY

Float
The normal y

NZ

Float
The normal z

This command does not return a value.

The normal is a projected direction away from the vertex position that instructs the matrix how to take light for that point. You can use matrix normals to affect how the matrix is lit and at what strength. The matrix number and tile reference values should be integer values. The normal values should be real numbers.

make matrix 1,1000,1000,25,25

 position matrix 1,0,0,0

 set matrix normal 1, 5, 5, 30.0, 20.0, 10.0

 update matrix 1

 do

 loop

 if matrix exist(1)=1 then delete matrix 1

 end
