Fence Modular System LITE

Fence Modular System LITE

Build complete fence systems directly in the Scene View - no manual prefab placement, no tedious alignment. The Fence Modular System is an Editor tool that lets you construct, extend, and modify modular fences through a guided, snap-based workflow. Just click, preview, and build.

This is the free LITE version: the complete Editor tool plus 2 of the 5 fence types - Picket Fence and Wrought Iron Fence. Try the entire workflow in your own project, then unlock all five types in the full version.

✨ Key Features

- Scene View Construction:

Build fences entirely within the Scene View. Direction arrows guide your placement and a real-time ghost preview shows exactly what will be built before you commit.

- Preview Every Type and Finish:

The tool window shows all five fence types and all four finish slots. The ones that are not part of the LITE version are marked with a padlock, so you can see exactly what the full version adds before deciding.

- Automatic Placement Validation:

The ghost start post automatically detects invalid surfaces - slopes, obstacles, or objects that would prevent proper construction. Invalid placements are visually indicated before you even click. When no surface is detected, the post automatically snaps to Y0.

- Continue Build Mode:

Extend any existing fence from its end posts. Select a post, pick a direction, and keep building - the system seamlessly connects new segments to your existing structure.

- Corners:

90° corners are fully integrated into the building workflow. The system places the correct corner post and adjusts orientation automatically depending on your build direction.

- Close Loop:

Connect the end of a fence back to an existing post to form a closed circuit. The system detects proximity, highlights the connection in green, and replaces posts with the correct type on commit.

- Animated Gates:

Single and double gates are included for both fence types - fully integrated into the snap-based workflow with matching post connections. All gates feature working open/close animations.

- Flip:

Flip entire fences or individual elements to mirror their appearance. Gate animations are automatically flipped along with the visuals.

- 2 Fence Types with Seamless Switching:

Switch entire fences between both included types with a single click: Picket Fence and Wrought Iron Fence. Each type comes with 1 New and 1 Worn texture set. Both types share standardized snap points - switching is a seamless prefab swap with no repositioning required, and your current selection is preserved.

- Smart Selection & Deletion:

Clicking a section automatically co-selects its connected posts for visual clarity. Shift-click to multi-select sections - posts between them are highlighted automatically. Deleting a section triggers automatic post repair: orphaned end posts are converted to the correct type, maintaining a clean structure.

- Post Protection:

Posts cannot be accidentally deleted. The system intercepts delete commands on posts to prevent broken fences.

- Full Undo:

Every action - including full Continue Build sessions - is grouped into a single undo step. Ctrl+Z reverts the entire operation, not individual pieces.

- Slope Tolerance:

A built-in 3° slope tolerance ensures fences can only be placed on surfaces with a maximum slope of 3°.

- Performance-Friendly:

Each fence type uses only 1 material regardless of length or complexity. Combined with Unity's Static Batching, draw calls stay minimal even in large scenes. Every element ships with three LOD levels.

🧱 Post Types

The system includes three post types that are automatically managed during construction:

- End Post (E) - Placed at the start and end of every fence segment

- Middle Post (M) - Connects two sections in a straight line

- Corner Post (C) - 90° connection between two sections

🎯 Built for Fences

Purpose-built for modular fence construction - every feature, from snap logic to automatic post type management, is designed around how fences actually work in real-world applications.

📦 What's Included

- Complete Editor tool. The fences themselves need no runtime scripts; only the animated gates carry a lightweight runtime component and an Animator to drive open and close.
