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.
