Tilemap Palette Creation
Workflow
Step 1: Parameter Gathering
WAIT for the user to specify the following parameters if not already provided:
- Palette Name: The name of the asset.
- Grid Type: Rectangular, Hexagonal, or Isometric.
- Cell Size: Optional (defaults based on Grid Type).
- Sort Axis: Required for Isometric palettes.
Step 2: Asset Creation
Utilise UnityEditor.Tilemaps.GridPaletteUtility.CreateNewPalette to create the Tile Palette asset.
Branching Logic (Grid Types)
Path A: Rectangular
- Use Automatic cell sizing. Use cell size:
(1, 1, 0)as a default.
Path B: Hexagonal
- Use cell size:
(0.8659766, 1, 1).
Path C: Isometric
- Use cell size:
(1, 0.5, 1). - Use a Custom Sort Axis with value
(0, 0, 1).
Path D: Isometric Z As Y
- Use cell size:
(1, 0.5, 1). - Use a Custom Sort Axis with value
(0, 0, 1).
Post-Creation
Ensure that there is a GridPalette as a sub-asset of the Tile Palette asset.
