AI grid panel

Overview

_{All 3 tabs of the AI Grid Panel}

The AI Grid Panel is a panel that allows you to interact with the AI Grid. The panel has 5 major features:

• The Header, which features saving/loading, a toggle to set automatic reloading of the AI Grid on leaving Game Mode and 3 Interaction Modes
• Generating the AI Grid, which allows you to regenerate grids (AI Grid, Vision Grid and Material Grid) after making changes to your level or placing AI Seeders
• Painting Movement, which allows you to modify the automatically generated AI Grid with one of the AI Grid paint interaction modes
• Painting Surfaces, which allows you to paint Surfaces on the AI Grid using one of the AI Grid paint Interaction Modes
• The Show Grid Options, which can be configured to visualize different grids in your game view

Using the AI Grid Panel

The Header

_{The Save/Load options}

The save and load buttons on the AI Grid Panel will save/load the AI Grid, the Material Grid and the Vision Grid. When loading, you will be prompted to save first if there are any unsaved changes. If you choose not to save, any changes made will be discarded.

_{The auto reload toggle}

The auto reload option sets whether or not the AI grids will automatically be reloaded after exiting game mode. If this option is checked, any in-game changes to the AI grid (e.g. surfaces from spells cast) will be undone upon exiting game mode. If this option is not checked, changes made in-game will remain after leaving the game mode, but it will not be possible to modify the AI grid in editor mode without reloading the AI grid first
