A Godot 4 plugin for creating textured 2D terrain polygons using a point-based editor and tile-like materials.
SmartShape2D is a plugin for the Godot 4 game engine that enables developers to create visually rich 2D terrain and polygon shapes. It simplifies building textured landscapes by allowing users to define shapes with points and apply TileMap-like materials, making it an essential tool for 2D game environment design.
Godot 4 developers creating 2D games who need to design textured terrain, landscapes, or complex polygon-based environments without manual texture stitching.
Developers choose SmartShape2D for its intuitive, editor-integrated workflow that reduces complex node setups, offering point-based shape creation with seamless TileSet-style texturing and normal mapping support directly within the Godot editor.
A 2D Terrain Tool for Godot

Features an in-editor toolbar with dedicated tools for drawing and editing points, making shape creation seamless within Godot 4, as highlighted in the Toolbar documentation.
Allows application of materials that behave like TileSet textures, enabling seamless and stylized terrain surfaces without manual stitching, similar to TileMaps as described in the README.
Enhances visual depth by supporting normal maps on terrain surfaces, detailed in the Normals documentation for richer 2D environments.
Offers point-based shape creation and editing features directly in the editor, reducing complex node setups and streamlining terrain design, as evidenced in the Shapes and Quick Start guides.
The README warns that some documentation is largely outdated, and video tutorials are for Godot 3, which can lead to confusion and a steeper learning curve for new users.
Tightly coupled with Godot 4.x; the Godot 3 version is unmaintained, limiting backward compatibility and forcing upgrades, as noted in the Support section.
Relies on Godot's editor integration, which may require re-saving scripts to see documentation or nodes, as mentioned in the README regarding Godot issues like #72406 and #86577.
