Before, units navigated the map using one giant 'Nav Mesh'. Whenever a new object is placed (or removed), the entire mesh updated.
Now, the map is made of many, tiny nav meshes. When an object is placed, only that single mesh needs updating!

Map editor is now in a state where I can easily craft custom maps. With how simple it is to use, this will be in the final product! I'm sure there will be some more bits I can add, but this is feeling mighty good right now.

Map Editor! 🗺️
This is huge. Spent a few days working on a map editor and I'm blown away at the progress I was able to make. Now I can finally start making some interesting maps!

I have variable height terrain! 🏔️ Sure, doesn't look ground-breaking (pun intended) ATM, but this is just a quick demo and I cant wait design more interesting maps around this. A couple of post processing shaders should also work some wonders!

I will probably be having some more of own soon and adopting a couple of other as well. Hopefully they turn out equally as handsome!

It's the little things! 🤏
I added a wee little recoil effect when the tank fires. Subtle, but these are the kind of things that I personally appreciate when I play other RTS games.

I'm honestly very happy with this simple tank design, although I'm still flushing out details and player accent colors.
What are your thoughts on it? Any recommendations?

What do you guys think of my voice lines? Some need some work 😅
