TilePlus Tile Asset Varieties

These are all project-level asssets.

• TpTileBundle: The asset created when you create a prefab from Tilemaps.
• TpTileFab: Another asset created when you create a prefab from Tilemaps.
• ProxyTile: a special tile used by Tile+Painter. Not available in a build.
• TpPrefabList: A group of prefab references for TpAnimZoneSpawner tiles.
• TpTileList: A group of TPT tile asset references for TpAnimZoneSpawner tiles.
• TpSlideShowSpriteSet: A group of sprite references for the TpSlideShow tile.
• TpSpriteAnimationClipSet: A group of sprite references for the TpFlexAnimatedTile tile.
• TpChunkSelectorBase, TpSingleFabChunkSelector, TpChunkZoneSelector: used with the Layout system.
• TpLibInit: Controls various TpLib options when entering Play mode (or running a built game)
• TpTweenSpec: A list of specifications for tweens. Optional but useful when using the same tween repeatedly.
• TpGoTweenSpec: A list of specifications for GameObject tweens.

These assets can be created from the Assets/Create/TilePlus menu except for the first three and TpChunkSelectorBase.

TpTileBundle and TpTileFab are assets created when you use the Tools/TilePlus/Prefabs/ Bundle Tilemaps menu command.

TpPrefabList is a list of TpPrefabSpawnerItems. Each item has the following fields:

• Prefab: The prefab to spawn
• Parent: Name or Tag of a GameObject to parent the spawned Prefab to. Optional.
• UseParentNameAsTag: If a Parent is specified, interpret as a Tag if this is checked.
• Position: Position of the prefab. Can be left at Vector3.zero.
• PositionIsRelative: If checked, the Position value is relative to the tile grid position.
• KeepWorldPosition: If checked, keeps the prefab’s world position relative to tile grid position.
• PoolInitialSize: The pool preload size.

TpTileList is like TpPrefabList, but for TPT tiles.

• Tile: The tile to paint
• PaintPosition: Where to paint it. An Enum selects where to paint.
  • Around the position of the tile doing the painting.
  • At the position of the tile doing the painting if the target Tilemap is not the same.
  • A random position within the painting tile’s Zone (see TpZoneSpawner/TpAnimatedZoneSpawner)

TpSlideShowSpriteSet has a list of TpSlideClips. Each clip has the following fields:

• Name: Name of the slide show
• WrapAround: Stop at the last sprite or wrap around to the first.
• StartIndex: The starting sprite for this slide show
• Sprites: A list of sprites to display.

TpSpriteAnimationClipSet has a list of TpAniClips. Each clip has the following fields:

• Name: Name of the AniClip
• DefaultTileIndex: When animation isn’t running, which tile to use for the static sprite.
• AnimationSpeed: Speed of animation relative to that set on the Tilemap component.
• OneShot: Stop the animation at the end of the sequence or repeat.
• RewindAfterOneShot: Rewind to the first frame after a one-shot animation ends.
• Converting from Unity sprite animation clips
  • This asset's inspector lets you copy the sprites from a Unity AnimationClip to a new AniClip.
  • Place an input AnimationClip in the provided field.
  • Click the button: adds an AniClip with the name of the Unity AnimationClip.
  • The AnimationClip field is cleared when you click the button.
  • If the AnimationClip doesn't have any sprites then an empty list of sprites will result (don't know why I need to say this...)
  • This operation is only possible in-editor.

Please note that when adding a new clip to the asset: AnimationSpeed will be 0, will cause a runtime warning if OneShot is true. Internally, a value of 1 is used if AnimationSpeed is zero, which may produce unintended results.
