To anyone having trouble with the Mouse Indicator Testing part, make sure you have a mesh collider on the plane you are using as your grid. Also, to anyone having trouble with the Cursor Indicator not aligning with the cursor, make sure it has the correct Y position as it is different in the game than in the scene viewport. Spend time to make sure it is perfectly level in the game when you hit play (it doesn't matter if it is below the plane in the scene mode).

This is because I am using C#9 features docs.unity3d.com/2021.2/Documentation/Manual/CSharpCompiler.html I am not sure about the shader part since this changes a lot (we are using a shader graph). But its something that you can convert easily - well you would recreate the shader in the older version of shader graph if it doesn't work out of the box). So those are the only limitations that comes to mind.

I think we have set in a script or as a component variable an "offset" for the indicator. Check the "PreviewSystem" script if we do something like "+new VEctor3(0, someValuse, 0);" when moving the indicator.

@HollowGameStudio

2 ай бұрын

I'm not sure what "PreviewSystem" script Peter is talking about in his comment here, but I found an offset solution that worked for me, as I had this same issue. For some reason I had to set my yOffset to ~0.8 to get the cell indicator high enough to stop z axis fighting. Instead of cellIndicator.transform.position = grid.CellToWorld(gridPosition); I used Vector3 cellIndicatorPosition = grid.CellToWorld(gridPosition); cellIndicatorPosition.y += yOffset; cellIndicator.transform.position = cellIndicatorPosition;

Hello, I am having issues with the grid being unaligned and unaffected by any changes to dragging the GridParent around. I am using the Voxel Generator tutorial you made and trying to implement this building grid system in a 3D world. I tried to follow along perfectly (swapping the floor grid indicator for a 3D visual model) but the closest i ever got to a functional (somewhat buggy) 3D grid is this: private void Update() { Vector3 mousePosition = inputManager.GetSelectedMapPosition(); Vector3 gridPosition = new Vector3(Mathf.Round(mousePosition.x), Mathf.Round(mousePosition.y), Mathf.Round(mousePosition.z)); mouseIndicator.transform.position = mousePosition; cellIndicator.transform.position = gridPosition; } With the GridParent Transformed to -.5 on XYZ. Depending on the face of the voxel, it either works correctly or places the grid cursor in the air beside the target block. Any help to my confusion is appreciated!

@SunnyValleyStudio

4 ай бұрын

I am not sure but it might be but remember that the Grid component has center points in the bottom-left corner (at least in 2D). Maybe it is a matter of math - that in the voxel generator the center point is in the middle of the voxel. Maybe just adding an offset of -.5 to x and z by default would fix that? The error sounds like a floating point issue where since it it is on the edge of 2 grid tiles it sometimes works and sometimes doesn't, Still might be some more complex problem.

Is there a tutorial to do this in a 2D based game?

In the tutorial we use "GridData" object to store placed objects and their position. You should be able to easily expend this data or use it to ex "block placement of more than 3 chairs" (so to condition placement based on already placed object). I hope it answers your question!

I'd like to do something similar in 2d but I'm having some trouble with the input manager. The z index of the circle I'm using as a mouse indicator is at -6.58 even though my near clipping on the camera is set to 0 (started with 0.001) and it's not following the mouse position either (based on inspector values). Any ideas why and what I could do to fix it?

@SunnyValleyStudio

In 2D you actually don't need the Camera Raycast. You would use "Camera.main.ScreenToWorldPoint(Input.mousePosition);" Next you would use that to move your Image (since in 2d we don't use spheres 🙂 unless you know what you are doing) and set it as spheres x and y position. Hope it makes sense! If you are using the new input system you just need to get the mosuPosition from that 🙂

I followed every step you took with making the script and set everything where it needs to be, but when I got to 'testing getting mouse position' and click on play, the mouse won't move in the game. It's like it's not seeing the Sphere mouse? Do you have any idea why this is?

Check if the Raycast detects your plane. Remember that we use a LayerMask to limit the mouse position detection to the grass plane so the sphere will only move if the raycast detects the grass plane. Easiest way si to Debug.Log(position) inside the hit.collider != null check. I hope it helps!

I have been having this issue where on one side of the plane the grid snaps all the way to the edge and on the other side it only snaps one early. This makes it so on one side it goes outside of the plane. I have been trying to offset things like crazy. The grid, the plane, the gridparent. I even tested with the sphere as grid indicator and still it indicates that it reaches the edge of the plane on one side but not on the other side. I also have tried scaling but just no change works. I am completely lost on why my grid is completely incorrect.

@SunnyValleyStudio

Ай бұрын

So remember how we convert the world position to grid position? Check using Debug.log what is the world position and what the grid position is. It might be that the grid has an offset and when you reach one of the edges the position is Ceiled (rounded up) ? Also remember that we have the grid plane and the ground plane (for simplicity of the setup). The problem might be that one is smaller than the other and when detecting positions on the edge there is actually no collider so the raycast is NULL and the returned position is from the previous row / column. This actually happened to me so maybe that is also an issue in your case?

Does this apply to uneven ground?

@SunnyValleyStudio

Жыл бұрын

Well usually the grid is flat (even if the space includes a mountain it should not take more space than another cell in your grid) - so unless you want an irregular grid the only problem is placing the objects or drawing the grid in accordance with the vertices of the mesh. I am not really sure how our shader would work - I assume that it would handle it. In that case all you would need is to adjust the placement position so that the object aligns with the ground. I hope it helps somehow. I haven't tested this system with an uneven ground (like in civilization series) *for an irregular grid you would need a custom grid script

is it normal that getting the mouse postion takes away so much fps? Because this makes me worried about the performance of my game. I cannot work efficiently if i dont solve this issue or find out that it is normal.

Yes. You could still shoot a raycast from the camera of the player just in the forward direction. The use of Grid component should work for any kind of grid placement system - it is reusable.

We do that because we are using a perspective camera. Take a look at Camera View Frustum docs.unity3d.com/Manual/UnderstandingFrustum.html If we don't set the z value the the calculated value will be based on the distance closer to the camera on a much saller plane of the frustum. This will mean that in our near clip plane your mouse movement is tiny compared to the plane but closer tot he camera you have moved very far. This will result in your objects moving very far compared to your visible mouse movement. Now in our project we wanted the camera to be almost orthographic so the difference might be not that noticeable. I hope it answers your question.

How can i make a circular grid? The cells have to be a square and they need to form a circle.

@SunnyValleyStudio

6 ай бұрын

You should consider it in terms of painting pixel art in Aseprite (or paint or any software). There you have a "brush" which defines a selection shape. All you need is to find or figure out an algorithm to select all the grid cells using some radius value from a specified position. Not sure if that is what you mean. In terms of the shader I don't think it would be that easy to create it. I think the easiest solution is to generate a mesh / or create it in Blender that is of the shape of your circle and put the shader on it so that it only shows the "circular" grid made of squares. I hope it makes sense!

Why we need Vector3Int gridPosition = grid.WorldToCell(mousePosition); cellIndicator.transform.position = grid.CellToWorld(gridPosition); ? Why not Vector3Int gridPosition = grid.WorldToCell(mousePosition); cellIndicator.transform.position = gridPosition;

I think this is because your cell position is relative to the grid object. If we move the object the cell position will not be the same as world position. The cell indicator on the other hand is placed relative to the world space. I might be wrong here but that was my reasoning 🙂
