Let me start by saying that I generally really like the idea of very popular mods, used for competetive play, being integrated into the game. It is a good chance to reach a lot of people and shows the devs interest in the competetive scene.
The way the grid has been implemented into DE is very bad in my opinion.
Let’s think about what the grid is for:
It needs to be visible enough, so you can see gaps in your walls etc.
It needs to be subtle, so it doesnt get in the way of anything you do while playing.
These grid lines are so intrusive, that they really get in the way, go look into any old mod like Alignment Grid for HD and you’ll see the lines being much more see through.
Thanks, I know this exists, but I thought I’d provide some feedback on the “official” grid.
What’s the point of adding something to the game, if it’s obsolete one day after release, because someone made a much better version.
The point is probably for people to use the hotkey to toggle between no grid/white grid/dark grid.
And for that it makes sense to have the grid to be more “in your face”, since you only call it, when you really need it.
Though I dislike the triple-toggle and would rather toggle betwen either no grid/dark grid or no grid/white grid.
It didn’t work for me at all, so I told Zetnus in the Discord server.
Thus he might have noticed that it’s broken for himself as well and is pulling it down for maintenance?
Developers should make official grid thinner, so that players could keep on using toggleable grid instead of being forced to use permanent grid simply because it uses more reasonable line thickness.
