TSL: Array of vectors as uniform.

[Mugen87]

Description

For the port of PoissonDenoiseShader it's necessary to pass an array of vec3 into the shader. Can this be done with uniform() already? Something like:

this.vectors = uniform( [ new Vector3( 1, 0, 0 ), new Vector3( 0, 1, 0 ), new Vector3( 0, 0, 1 ) ]  );

The above code produces the following runtime error when I try to access a vector via this.vectors.element( i ).

Error: Uniform "null" not declared.

Unless I'm mistaken, the uniforms() function ( exported from nodes/accessors/UniformsNode.js ) allows you to do this.

#27706

I do think it would be nice if the functionality of UniformNode and UniformsNode was unified in a single call to the uniform function, which may be as simple as constructing the requisite node object depending on whether the argument passes the Array.isArray check. I'm not sure there's a reason the end user would want to differentiate between using uniform() or uniforms().

uniforms() does the trick, thanks!

That's indeed a good point.
