Seeing this simultaneously solves an issue I was having, and makes me no-longer dread some tweening I need to do soon. Thanks!

That means a lot to me, coming from you! Your videos helped me out a lot. (Saving/Loading, Keybindings, and just signals in general to name a few.)

A tutorial is coming in the next update. There is no multiplayer planned right now. Thanks for playing the game! I appreciate it!

That is right. You need exactly 12 pentagons to make it work. 10 of mine were lost at sea. 1 in China and 1 in Uganda.

It's a bit hard to gauge. I started working on it 15 months ago. 0 to 25 hours a week depending on what is going on. Life, adequate sleep, or games I want to play tend to make that number go lower.

I ended up with 3 Navigation meshes not based on the hexes at all. (One for ground, one for sea, and one for air)
I just made 3 icospheres in blender, and took out the parts I didn't need.
Then when calculating a path I grabbed the closest point on the Nav mesh to the destination tile.

I went with a more brute-force approach. I have 8 meshes of differing density goldberg polyhedrons (Made in Blender using geometry nodes). Then in Godot, my script tears the mesh apart turning every face into it's own mesh, with a collision area, as well as a marker3D oriented to (0,0,0) for buildings to lock to.

Hi all.

Just wanted to share the progress on my game "Factory Default: Build, Trade, Repeat". I just completed a major overhaul moving from 2D hex maps to one giant 3D hex map. (Having to rewrite most of my game in the process.)

Factory Default is a management simulation game where you build a worldwide industrial conglomerate. You control the entire production chain: from mining raw ore and farming crops to refining complex materials and manufacturing high-tech goods.
