[Solved] Dragging tiles

I have a small request for Unity 2D: please can we have the ability to select a group of tiles and move them around our scene? I tried the Move tool- it does nothing, as if tiles were insubstantial.

 

You can use tiles to make game objects that you'll be able to drag around at will.

 

Are you the same Tigersong I know from other places?

 

How's that accomplished? And in reply to your question- yes, this one believes we first met in TESA. Hello again!

 

Ha ha! Welcome!

 

Create a tile and drag it in the hierarchy view and it will be a game object to which you'll be able to add scripts, colliders, rigidbody if necessary, and so on.

If you are completely new to this, I recommend that you make this tutorial: https://learn.unity.com/project/ruby-s-2d-rpg

 

I'm not sure if I've understood your question well. If you ask about selecting tiles that you have already drawn on a tilemap instead of erasing them and drawing them again elsewhere, there are "select" and "move" tools in the tile palette: https://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/Tilemap-Painting.html

 

Thank you very much, and now this one promises to look more closely at the editor.

 

Ha ha!
