Hey guys been awhile since I used Houdini, how can I cut polgygons with polgyon lines? I have a series of straight lines that I want to divide a box from (preferably only one face of the box that faces directly at them)

If you have a bunch of straight lines, then why not use the Clip SOP?

I didn't share this tool. But I used PolySplit node so you can repeat this pretty easy.
