EditReturns the vertices in the Mesh.
vertices = Mesh:getVertices(index, count)Arguments
| Name | Type | Default | Description |
| index | number | 1 | The index of the first vertex to return. |
| count | number | nil |
The number of vertices to return. If nil, returns the "rest" of the vertices, based on the index argument.

Returns
| Name | Type | Description |
| vertices | table | A table of vertices. Each vertex is a table of numbers for each vertex attribute, given by the vertex format of the Mesh. |
Notes
This function will be very very slow if the storage mode of the Mesh is
gpu, because the data will be downloaded from VRAM. A better option is to callBuffer:newReadbackon the Mesh's underlying vertex buffer (Mesh:getVertexBuffer), which will download in the background instead of waiting for it to complete.
