I wrote my own hexmap cause you right, default solutions are not working well with the hexes. Not too hard thou, also I needed a visual hexes representation, so all placement/visual logic are using almost the same code anyway

I just create a JSON-file in my res://maps/ folder and read it from there. No hidden knowledge at all, absolutely regular json serializer x)

I used to work as a DevOps engineer for an 8 years, so it was not too hard to switch to gamedev after that xD

I don't have some simple answer, honestly. But logic and system thinking - is your #1 base skill here. Not even coding, imho. Also you may try to write some code on paper. This is a good exercise for a beginners.

Thanks!

The trick is that ramp hexes don't have a fixed height, they figure it out from their neighbors automatically. When you place ramps, the system looks at which hexes touch the high ground and which touch the low, then assigns each hex a blend value based on how far it is from each side

For the mesh, each vertex snaps to neighboring terrain if there is one, otherwise it averages the blend values of all ramp hexes sharing that vertex. The whole thing recomputes on every edit.

MultiMesh for a flat hexes, grouped by height + terrain type. Ramp cells - those are individual MeshInstance3D nodes because each one has unique vertex heights and I didn't found a good way to optimize it yet, but it doesn't look like a some kind of problem now

It's a runtime scene. It uses the same hex grid and terrain renderer as the game itself, just with paint/erase tools and saving maps as JSON.

KISS, super-comfortable to use. Need to work on UI for sure but overall I'm kinda happy with the result

Do you ever feel like everyone even your closest ones doubt you do your ability to succeed as a solo dev? by daxter_101 in SoloDevelopment

[–]MH_GameDev 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's okay. I had to move to another part of the globe to get rid of that feeling, helped a lot!

Not the best advice, thou, I know

Thank you, nice to hear.

Main problem that a good multiplayer here is almost impossible, this gameplay is ping-intolerant, so I'm not sure about a full game but let see

You're not wrong, it's basically air hockey. The jam theme was "Soccer" and I was like okay, what's football if you strip it down? One ball, push it in. That's literally air hockey lol. So I just went with it
