 Description

Multiple auto-generated 1x1 platforms to connect between various others. They should connect perfectly (shape-wise) with existing platforms but are partially optimized to remove unnecessary vertices/faces.

What is included

Borders

A border represent the edge of a block. Platforms have been generated for any valid combinations using the following borders :

  • Flat
  • Small (S) slope (with flat ends)
  • Big (S) slope (with flat ends)

Materials

  • Tech -> PlatformTech
  • Dirt -> CustomDirt (0xFA5530, ingame suggested color)
  • Ice -> CustomIce (0xDFFFFE, ingame suggested color)
  • Grass -> CustomGrass (0x80EA4D, ingame suggested color)

How to use

Borders naming

Border names are divided in 4 numbers XY_ZW.

  • X & Y represent the slope at start and end of the border (0 = flat, 1 = semi/bi-slope, 2 = standard slope)
  • Z & W represent how many block border goes up and forward (one block = 8 units for up and 32 units for forward)

Platforms naming

Each platform is named after its 4 borders starting by the lowest corner and going counter-clockwise. If border is reversed (= needs to go down), an "f" is added at its end. In case a platform has multiple corners at same lowest altitude, the most clockwise one is chosen as starting point.

Folder sorting

Platforms are placed in folders according to their first 2 borders.


Ex: let's say you need a dirt platform to connect a small slope going up followed by another small slope going up, then a big slope going down and finally a flat border. The lowest corner will be where the flat border starts and you will encounter borders as follow :

  • flat (flat ends, 0 up + 1 forward : 00_01)
  • small slope up (00_11)
  • small slope up (00_11)
  • big slope down(00_21f)

Therfor the block should be : 00_01/00_11/PlatformConnector-Dirt-00_01-00_11-00_11-00_21f

Other platforms

It can happen that included platforms are not enough for you. I can technically generate all possible combinations of 1x1 platforms (and even 2x1 / 2x2 ones) but that would be at least 280Mo which is too heavy for ITX.

If you need a specific platform using another kind of border (ex: ramp start/end) OR if you want it customized with a special material, OR if you want a lighter and more optimized (but less smooth) version, feel free to leave me a message :) in the event I would have left the community, my generating tool should always be available on my github
