Making an array "spread" out evenly?
How do I properly make an array "30x30" of planes are spread out evenly? The one and only issue i'm having is that the planes are overlapping each other by 3 units. How do I properly make sure the planes are butted up to each other and not overlapping?

Array Code:
public void grid_array ()
{
for (int x = 0; x<grids_x; x++) {
for (int z = 0; z<grids_z; z++) {
GameObject grid_plane = GameObject.CreatePrimitive (PrimitiveType.Plane);
grid_plane.renderer.material = pgrid_mat;
grid_plane.transform.localScale = new Vector3 (0.5f, 1f, 0.5f);
Vector3 grid_vector = new Vector3 (x - 15, 0, z - 15);// grids_x & z = 30 and I want the array to be centered.
grid_plane.transform.position = grid_vector;
Debug.Log ("Grid Draw: " + grid_vector.ToString ());
}
}
}
EDIT:
The answer to fixing this was just add "*5" to the end of "grid_plane.transform.position = grid_vector;".
You need to take the size of each plane into account.
They are 10x10 units.
You scale them to half the size.
Position them 5 units apart
Example:
Vector3 grid_vector = new Vector3 (x - 15, 0, z - 15);
grid_vector *= 5;
You need to take the size of each plane into account.
Yea I had a feeling this was the case. I tried multiplying both grids_x & grids_z by different numbers to see if that would work. I didn't try doing anything to "grid_plane.transform.position = grid_vector;". Quite interesting that the only thing I needed to do was this "grid_plane.transform.position = grid_vector * 5;".
I appreciate the help! Ill make sure to add the answer to my OP.
