As I mentioned in the previous post, I have been working on fire grids and I wanted to post some updates on my progress.<\/p>\n
To start things off I created two main classes: FireGrid and GridCell; a fire grid is simply a 2D array of GridCell instances that also provides utility methods to get a specific cell from a coordinate or to get the neighbours of the provided cell.<\/p>\n
I will be using an expression to simulate the logic and I decided to structure my code so that everything happens in steps: those are going to be calculated and executed every frame through an expression that calls some python code and that\u2019s where most of the logic is going to lie.<\/p>\n
In order to test things out I create a polyCube instance for each Cell and I have added some global variables to regulate both the cell size and the grid size: those will be exposed later on by the tool I will be writing to allow the user to tweak the simulation based on how big the scene is going to be.<\/p>\n
For the next week my plan is to research and find a way to specify a material for each cell, one of the methods I have in mind to solve it would be raycasting but I would need to research this further and look at the documentation to find out if it\u2019s possible to do so.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
