Hey Sprytile community,

What am I working on?
I am working on game environment inspired by the original GTA games.
What am problem am I running into?
I am running into some workflow related issues with Sprytile. I am trying to rapidly create buildings with Sprytile. Pretty much the buildings are just extrusions from the ground most of the time.. Currently I need to paint out the Buildings. This takes up some time. I feel that this process could be faster.

What I would like to have?
Some sort of extrude tool that extrudes a certain amount of user defined blender units and a certain amount of user defined rows. I would nice to  have the faces of each row to be textured if possible by a pre-selected sprite from the sprite atlas before I begin the extrude process.


How would this work?
1. Select a sprite from the texture atlas.
2. Create a Ground to extrude from.
3. Select the area that you want to extrude.
4. Select the tile you want for the ground floor.
5. Extrude the ground floor.
6. Select a texture for the other floors.
7, Repeat for other floors until finished.

If what i described does not make sense read this article.
If this is covered some other tool in Sprytile. Forgive me - I am still new to the tool and have much to learn.


Thank you for your time,

Hi Headclot, thanks for the well defined feature request. I'll put this in the issues for Sprytile, but I wouldn't be able to say when I'll be able to add this feature.

Thanks for using Sprytile!
