PlacementPositioning2DUtils

PlacementPositioning2DUtils Static utility functions for 2D grid-based positioning and tile movement operations. This class provides pure functions for common 2D game positioning tasks including:

• Converting between world coordinates, viewport coordinates, and tile coordinates
• Moving nodes to tile centers with proper alignment
• Viewport-to-world coordinate transformations using Camera2D
• Distance-limited movement with adjacency constraints
• Direction vector normalization for tile-based movement All functions are static and depend only on provided parameters, making them highly testable and reusable. Extracted from GridPositioner2D to reduce class coupling and improve maintainability. [b]⭐ CAMERA2D REQUIRED[/b]
• Add a Camera2D node to your scene before using Grid Building operations. World coordinate calculations from mouse position depend on Camera2D for accurate positioning. [b]Requirements:[/b] Designed for 2D games using TileMapLayer and Camera2D nodes.
