I made the BEST object placement system

Let's talk about object placement! We build a system for placeable objects, like structures, chests or crafting stations in this tutorial geared for open world games. Using raycasting, and material swapping, we achieve a nice blue preview object that turns into a red preview when in an invalid position. This system can easily be extended to work on a grid as well!
