LibreGrid is an open-source grid placement solution for Roblox. It deals with all the math headaches for you and it is very intuitive and lightweight.
Why LibreGrid?
I have been developing my world-building game Wubby for some time now, and the worst problem I stumbled upon was getting the proper grid calculations when the player had to place down blocks. With this open-source module, I want everyone to have a perfectly calculated, lightweight, and intuitive experience to avoid more people from descending into the rabbit hole I went through.
Every other grid module I found is either very limiting, too complex to use, or just not what I’m looking for. I swear, I would’ve loved that a module like this existed while I was first developing Wubby.
LibreGrid emulates surface-based placement (like the one that Roblox Studio offers), getting rid of all the math-related headaches that would take coding it yourself, with support for both BaseParts and Models. Moreover, it allows for more customizations that developers can change in real-time to their liking. This means that, using LibreGrid, you can achieve a block-placing system (like Minecraft’s), a furniture placement system (2D placement), or a Roblox Studio-like experience.
This module is the result from months, if not years, of trial and error while developing Wubby.
