A Guide to Octagons

Overview

Hello everyoneThis is my first guide and I hope it’s useful to anyone new to Reassembly or anyone who’s been struggling as much as I have with the Plasma cannon sizing from the default faction.Without further ado, I present an efficient and effective way of integrating any octagonal shape into square ships.Special thanks to M_Gamelin for his help with the second method.Special thanks to 13mars for the rename suggestion.

Integration method 1

Integration method 2

Less gaps but uses the silly sqrt(2) shape sizing

Side-by-Side and scale
