Resources on making pointy tiles?

Question

I searched around a bit and couldn't find resources on making pointy tiles. Was wondering if yall found any.

Answer 1

I wasn't able to find any good resources to be able to add pointy tiles, instead, I used boxes that get smaller as they go up to approximate a prism to make tiles pointy. Try doing that, I've found it to be the easiest way, and it's not a lot of code either.

Answer 2

I tried to use the Trianglemesh for a while but there are no good resources to help me learn how to use it. In the end, I just created a bunch of small boxes that get smaller as they go up to make it look like a pyramid.

Answer 3

We tried to rotate the top box so that one of the corners was pointing straight up. But JavaFx only lets you rotate one axis at a time, and it overwrites the last rotation you did, so you can only ever rotate one axis at a time. :/

Answer 4

The internet is silent about Trianglemesh, with no apparent good tutorial. We had to think outside of the Box.
