Support / Tilemap Chunks

« on: November 18, 2013, 10:00:46 pm »

Hi

I am just looking into developing something which requires "groups" of tile maps. In that, the levels are pieced together given a larger set of tiles. Rather than individual tiles.

There is a few ways I can think of doing this. Each "tile-group" is a separate tile-map (but I am worried about speed?). You can then drag and drop the pre-fabs into the scene, each a separate tile-map-group.

I can write extensions to the tools. To maybe "apply" one tile-set to a larger tile-set. Although this seems a bit more difficult.

My eventual aim is to be able to (in-game) drag and drop these tilemaps together.

Alternatively.... I can not use tilemaps and develop my own out-of-the-box for this but I quite like the additional features I have with the tilemaps.

Support / Sprite Collections Not Working

« on: October 28, 2012, 10:34:02 am »

Hi, Im getting lots and lots of errors when trying to setup sprite collections.

Firstly there is very little details on how to setup a SpriteCollection. I eventually figured out its a component which has a button to open the SpriteCollection editor (its no where in the documentation). Although it does have details on how to setup sprites once you get to this.

If I open up the spider collection, that works fine and I get no errors.  If I try to create my own like so:

Create a GameObject -> Attach a SpriteCollection to it -> Drag onto prefab -> Hit "open editor", I get the following errors:

Code: [Select]

I can work on other things until this is resolved but its slowing down production, we are on a tight deadline!

Thanks.
