Introducing Hexagonal Grids to Grid Creation Systems

Grid Creation Systems finally introduces a new member to its family of grids in the latest v1.6 update: Hexagonal Grids.

As shown in the video, the Hexagonal Grid Generator supports basic drag & drop support plus in-editor customization, and also comes with basic utility functions for retrieving grid points at specified (x,y) indices:

  • GetIndicesOfGridCellsAt(X)
  • GetIndicesOfGridCellsAt(Y)
  • GetIndexOfGridCellAt(X&Y)

 

With the inclusion of Hex Grids, GCS now has 9 unique grid configurations:

  • Rectangular/Square configuration
  • Circular configuration
  • Cuboid configuration
  • Spherical/Geographic configuration
  • Square Pyramid configuration
  • Concentric Circles configuration
  • Hollow Square configuration
  • Flying Wedge configuration
  • Hexagonal configuration

With this update, I've finally added all the different types of grids that I wanted to provide in this package. Over the next few updates, I plan to add more features to flesh out the Hex Grid, including an example demo that showcases how to handle grid interaction. Also, I've recently started work on a few other interesting projects. Hoping to share more on that soon.
