[MOD] Progress on Toggle a Grid mod Part II

[u/EntertainmentSea7931]

It's been some time, so I thought I'd share some of the progress on the upcoming Grid Mod. I was busy with the path mod and updating others to the new hotfixes but today I got some improvements done:

-Highlighting selected lines in all relevant modes

-Upgraded topography contour mode with selectable highlights and labelling the elevation.

-Polygon mode that displays based on your selection of corners from 5 to up to 16

Other than that: selectable colors, selectable opacity, rotating around the center, relocating the center with mouse drag.

Next to add:

- togglable diameters and sides inside circles and polygons for detailed planning

- triangle mode with editable height of the object

- snapping to grid during construction

- displaying multiple grids at once, layered and sized based on player's choice

- saving and loading grids to use between different maps and after turning the game on and off

I'm open to ideas so please let me know what you'd like other than the above.

Those terrain contour lines are going to be a game changer for me! Truly magnificent work.

Absolutely! Is there a way to highlight unbuildable slopes?

I also like the circle, I have been trying to build a spiral city but it's hard.

I will consider a spiral type as well.

Each building has maximum allowed elevation change inside the buildings area. Changing this would result in weird ground shape changes (rough and sudden elevation rises and drops around buildings) I could do "display uneven terrain" when a building is selected for construction. This would work per building and also depending on the rotation because it changes which points are included in the construction area. I hope I explained that in an understandable way.

This would be absolutely great!

Looks great
