How do I go about making the tiles in the 3d Godot's grid map interactive?

Audiobellum

I know that what I'm asking for might be a tall order, especially considering that I'm a beginner to game developing and programming. However, could you please give me any advice on how I can the tile maps interactive? I know that it's not a feature that Godot 3d has but, I'm basically asking how to add new features to Godot and I don't even know where to start. I already know( or at least heard of) interactive tiles in 2d grip maps but, I really want to be able to do the same thing with 3d grid maps. Any help? Got any advice?

As far as I am aware the autotiling implemented for the 2d tilemap is not available for the 3d gripmap, so you would need to program the logic yourself too .

You will probably want to write a custom editor in GDScript rather than modifying Godot Engine directly. What I mean is that you would program/run your custom editor as you would program/run a game.

GDQuest's Node Essentials is showing how to use the 3d gripmap node and how to implement a basic autotilling and level editor, but it is a paid resource.

I have made randomly generated 3d tilemaps a while ago with BabylonJS, and I found this resource very useful: http://www.cr31.co.uk/stagecast/wang/blob.html

Hope that helps :smile:
