Paint a specific coordinate with RayCaster

Hello friends, good time
I am using the RayCaster class to color the coordinates of the mouse click point.
I use this code to paint:

const raycaster = new THREE.Raycaster();
const pointer = new THREE.Vector2();

    function onPointerMove(event) {

        pointer.x = (event.clientX / window.innerWidth) * 2 - 1;
        pointer.y = - (event.clientY / window.innerHeight) * 2 + 1;

        raycaster.setFromCamera(pointer, camera);

        const intersects = raycaster.intersectObjects(scene.children);

        try {
            for ( let i = 0; i < intersects.length; i ++ ) {
                intersects[i].object.material.color.set(0x3d2d3d);
            }
        
            renderer.render( scene, camera );
        }
        catch (e) {
            console.log(e.message);
        }
    }

Now my question is how to color the clicked coordinates?

thanks for your view

You can’t just color the selected point on a mesh’s surface so you normally add a small sphere mesh or sprite to the selected position.

I think @Mugen87 meant “can’t” here…

And on the off chance that you are interested in actually painting on the models texture… I made this a while ago… but it’s a more heavyweight solution… and shouldn’t be used if you’re just trying to indicate something was clicked…

What you mean, friends, is to get the coordinates of the clicked point with the Raycaster class and then draw a circle at that point.

it’s true?
