--- Scales the defined region down by the given scale factor in the given directions.
-- @param	pos1		Vector	Position 1 of the defined region,
-- @param	pos2		Vector	Position 2 of the defined region.
-- @param	scale		Vector	The scale factor - as a vector - by which to scale down.
-- @param	direction	Vector	The direction to scale in - as a vector. e.g. { x = -1, y = 1, z = -1 } would mean scale in the negative x, positive y, and nevative z directions.
-- @return	boolean, string|table	Whether the operation was successful or not. If not, then an error messagea as a string is also passed. If it was, then a statistics object is returned instead.
