    I'm trying to create a script that will extrude a face along a path but I can't quite get there.
    I don't know how I can get the indices of the vertices I created using extrude.

    This is what I currently have:


    What I want is a full ring without the holes.

    This is my code:
    Code (CSharp):
    1. using System.Collections;
    2. using System.Collections.Generic;
    3. using System.Linq;
    4. using UnityEngine;
    5. using UnityEngine.ProBuilder;
    6. using UnityEngine.ProBuilder.MeshOperations;
    7.  
    8. public class ProbuilderProceduralWall : MonoBehaviour
    9. {
    10.     public int radius = 10;
    11.     public int iterations = 20;
    12.     public bool FlipNormals = false;
    13.     [SerializeField]
    14.     List<Vector2> _face = new List<Vector2>();
    15.     [SerializeField]
    16.     Vector3[] _path = new Vector3[0];
    17.  
    18.     void OnDrawGizmos()
    19.     {
    20.         for (int i = 0; i < _face.Count - 1; i++)
    21.         {
    22.             Debug.DrawLine(_face[i], _face[i + 1]);
    23.         }
    24.         for (int i = 0; i < _path.Length - 1; i++)
    25.         {
    26.             Debug.DrawLine(_path[i], _path[i + 1]);
    27.         }
    28.     }
    29.     void Start()
    30.     {
    31.         if (_path.Length == 0) _path = MakePath(iterations, radius);
    32.         if (_face.Count == 0) _face = new List<Vector2>() { new Vector2(-0.5f, 0), new Vector2(-0.25f, .5f), new Vector2(0, 1), new Vector2(0.25f, 0.5f), new Vector2(0.5f, 0) };
    33.         Do();
    34.     }

    51.         for (var i = 0; i < iterations; i++)
    52.         {
    53.             path[i] = new Vector3(Mathf.Sin((1f / iterations * Mathf.PI * 2) * i) * radius, 0, Mathf.Cos((1f / iterations * Mathf.PI * 2) * i) * radius);
