Is it possible to add center dots in each hex? Used for determining line of sight.
Not a bad idea for a future addition. For now, I'd suggest three workarounds, depending on your requirements:
1) Make a custom Terrain hex, that is all magenta except for a dot or small cross at the center of the hex, and add it to the Palette and paint it everywhere for terrain. Won't work well if you want to add other terrain instead, and other items will cover it.
2) Make a custom Feature hex as per above. Allows you to use custom Terrains, but would eliminate other Features in such hexes.
3) Make a custom Detail hex as per the above. This will always cover other hexes, so will normally be best, but it means you can't use other Details in the same hex.
4) Make a custom Add-On hex as per the above. This can always be placed over top of everything, and will look great, but would be a bit of a paint to add. You can add one per the normal routine, then Shift-Click to add others. You'll have to Shift-Click on every hex to paint them everywhere.
I'd go with 3 as the best workaround, but it will depend on what else you want on the map.
You could also make a carefully composed Background with the dots on it, which will replicate across the entire map. It would have to cover a 2 x 2 hex area and would require some trial and error. Main problem is /everything/ you add would go over the dots.
By far the best thing would be for me to add the option to the code, but I'm not sure when I could get to it.
Anyhow, hope this helps in the meantime. Please don't let me forget to add this good feature in the future, though.
