tilemap collision confusion

Hi there.

Trying to get my feet wet with the tilemap system but I'm struggling to understand how to delete a specific tile- in this case a pacman dot set on the grid.



The dots are set on the tilemap with the layer name "wacdots"

I'm currently using the following script attached to the "wacdots" layer:

Code (CSharp):

1.     void OnTriggerEnter2D(Collider2D other)
2.     {
3.         if (other.name == "wacman") {
4.             Destroy(this.gameObject);
5.         }
6.     }

This destroys the entire tilemap, where as I'm trying to delete the specific tile that triggered the collision. I'm struggling to understand how to access the specific tile being triggered.

Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks.

 

The TileMap is the GameObject which renders the tiles. So you don't want to destroy it. Check out the documentation for TileMap in the docs that got downloaded/installed with the Preview.
