Use this if you want to deal with 2D arrays easily within the inspector of Unity.

For a quick import into an existing project, just get the UnityPackage. It also contains some examples.

The Array2DEditor folder on this repo is an empty project with only the plugin imported! 🙂

To get started:

• Just use the types defined by Array2DEditor, such as Array2DInt, Array2DBool, Array2DString...
• Don't forget to add using Array2DEditor on top of your script.
• You can then use the method GetCells() or GetCell(int x, int y) on your variable to get the values from your array at runtime!

To do that:

• Create a new class inheriting from CellRow<T> with your own type as the T type.
  • See the classes in CellRowTypes as an example.
• Create a new class inheriting from Array2D<T> with your own type as the T type.
  • See the existing Array2D<T> classes that you can find in the Array2DTypes folder as an example.
• Create a new class inheriting from Array2DDrawer and put it in an Editor folder.
  • See the existing Array2DDrawer classes that you can find in the Editor/PropertyDrawers folder as an example.
• If your type is an enum, you can make your PropertyDrawer inherit directly from Array2DEnumDrawer. The code will then be trivial.
  • See Array2DExampleEnumDrawer as an example.

• The plugin currently does not display well with collections of Array2D's (such as arrays or lists).
• Array2D's don't display in a ScrollView, so you're limited to a certain grid width before it goes out of the Inspector window. On a 1080p screen with a fullscreen Inspector window, you can have 50 cells with a 32px cell width, or 90 cells with a 16px cell width. You can change the cell size at any moment from the Inspector using the dropdown menu of any Array2D.
• Last tested with Unity 2019.4.13f1 (LTS).
