[grosser735]

Hello guys,

i cant find the option to activate the hexgrid,
like it is shown on the picture of the gamecoloroptions
in the preferences.

Can someone help?

Cheers

There is no option for a hex grid toggle in Southern Storm. We are discussing this with the team.

Just to clarify, you're saying there is no way to show/hide the hexgrid in the game? Really? Or is there just no hotkey for it?

Correct, we don't have a hex grid in the game.

We're looking at options to support hex grids, either by releasing map graphics with a hex grid baked in (the square 1km grid is baked in the game's maps), or by adding an overlay rendering that hex grid.

In today's meeting, a couple of us noted we initially missed the hex grid, but after playing a bit, we do not miss it now. As William stated, we are looking at options for it for those who do.

+1. I've decided I can't resist buying the game. But I would also like to see a hex grid.

Visually, I don't miss it but to be honest, I can't tell you the number of times I've clicked on the wrong grid when trying to move a unit.

I thought I would miss it, but after just a few turns of playing, I don't want to see it.

I’m fine without the hex grid personally, though I think it would make sense to have it present with a toggle; I’m not sure what inner workings make it difficult to overlay but I know a lot of players feel the need to see it.

I was looking for this myself.

Someone has a mod out with a hex grid on the maps. Check the Mods sub-forum.
