Hi,

is it possible to get a property for the players selected tile size as read and write, please?

Write, yes, read no.

The reason being: it's not part of the game state and not deterministic.
If you want to get ahold of me I'm almost always on Discord.

Sounds like an option to change the default size, either in data stage or via in-game gui, would be a better solution.

From the other thread:

The current default is 2x2, but it's definetly possible to place much larger sizes without running out of reach.
