Thank you for this tutorial!

just a suggestion for a performance thing (I have tested this) instead of a for loop you may want to look into using Linq. that entire ObjBase function becomes a single line if you use linq:


for example


return => lgo.obj_id == objId);


it uses the built in List functions which are way way faster than a for loop especially if that list starts getting rather large.


what SingleOrDefault does is grab the first thing that matches the criteria (here its the obj_id) and return that, if it does not find anything matching it simply returns null


just my 2 cents but great video

Loved the video! Also, you really sound like you have a second channel when you crush stuff with mechanical press, for fun and profit.

Have you noticed how often you start your videos with the word so? Nothing wrong with it, I just found it funny XD

Bought this asset, together with commando-esque (now advanced ai) project, plus top down unity project.
Within half an hour, I had combined the top down project with commando-esque ai.
Very nice for such little cost.

This could additionally use a blueprint option, that loads a simple picture temporarily as ground texture, for building planning, or simple plane for the blueprint. Also, we need terrain based grid, or the ability to disable non-terrain based grid, while leaving painted assets.

I bought the asset. Do I need to have Unity 5.4 for it to work? (Because there's an error about "but it's type")

[papapo]

it will work if my grid is a procedural mesh created using triangles?

Great work!

I followed you tutorial, but it's not working for me :/
1. grid isn't generated
2. i'm getting "NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object" at GridBase script in CreateGrid function in line "nodeObj.posX = x;"
is there any way to fix it?

[Ullukai]

would this work in a game that is already made ? how do you play the level that you save or load ? i dont see you playing any of the levels you saved or loaded in the videos

[Elenaj]

when i press play only one of the quads instantiates even though I have 20x20 in the public variable of the grid base code, can't figure out why if anyone can suggest a solution
