TileSetAtlasSource¶

Inherits: TileSetSource < Resource < RefCounted < Object

Exposes a 2D atlas texture as a set of tiles for a TileSet resource.

Description¶

An atlas is a grid of tiles laid out on a texture. Each tile in the grid must be exposed using create_tile. Those tiles are then indexed using their coordinates in the grid.

Each tile can also have a size in the grid coordinates, making it more or less cells in the atlas.

Alternatives version of a tile can be created using create_alternative_tile, which are then indexed using an alternative ID. The main tile (the one in the grid), is accessed with an alternative ID equal to 0.

Each tile alternate has a set of properties that is defined by the source's TileSet layers. Those properties are stored in a TileData object that can be accessed and modified using get_tile_data.

As TileData properties are stored directly in the TileSetAtlasSource resource, their properties might also be set using TileSetAtlasSource.set("<coords_x>:<coords_y>/<alternative_id>/<tile_data_property>").

Enumerations¶

enum TileAnimationMode:

TileAnimationMode TILE_ANIMATION_MODE_DEFAULT = 0

Tile animations start at same time, looking identical.

TileAnimationMode TILE_ANIMATION_MODE_RANDOM_START_TIMES = 1

Tile animations start at random times, looking varied.

TileAnimationMode TILE_ANIMATION_MODE_MAX = 2

Represents the size of the TileAnimationMode enum.

Constants¶

TRANSFORM_FLIP_H = 4096

Represents cell's horizontal flip flag. Should be used directly with TileMap to flip placed tiles by altering their alternative IDs.

var alternate_id = $TileMap.get_cell_alternative_tile(0, Vector2i(2, 2))
if not alternate_id & TileSetAtlasSource.TRANSFORM_FLIP_H:
    # If tile is not already flipped, flip it.
    $TileMap.set_cell(0, Vector2i(2, 2), source_id, atlas_coords, alternate_id | TileSetAtlasSource.TRANSFORM_FLIP_H)

TRANSFORM_FLIP_V = 8192

Represents cell's vertical flip flag. See TRANSFORM_FLIP_H for usage.

TRANSFORM_TRANSPOSE = 16384

Represents cell's transposed flag. See TRANSFORM_FLIP_H for usage.

Property Descriptions¶

Vector2i margins = Vector2i(0, 0)

void set_margins ( Vector2i value )
Vector2i get_margins ( )

Margins, in pixels, to offset the origin of the grid in the texture.

Vector2i separation = Vector2i(0, 0)

void set_separation ( Vector2i value )
Vector2i get_separation ( )

Separation, in pixels, between each tile texture region of the grid.

Texture2D texture

void set_texture ( Texture2D value )
Texture2D get_texture ( )

The atlas texture.

Vector2i texture_region_size = Vector2i(16, 16)

void set_texture_region_size ( Vector2i value )
Vector2i get_texture_region_size ( )

The base tile size in the texture (in pixel). This size must be bigger than the TileSet's tile_size value.

bool use_texture_padding = true

void set_use_texture_padding ( bool value )
bool get_use_texture_padding ( )

If true, generates an internal texture with an additional one pixel padding around each tile. Texture padding avoids a common artifact where lines appear between tiles.

Disabling this setting might lead a small performance improvement, as generating the internal texture requires both memory and processing time when the TileSetAtlasSource resource is modified.

Method Descriptions¶

void clear_tiles_outside_texture ( )

Removes all tiles that don't fit the available texture area. This method iterates over all the source's tiles, so it's advised to use has_tiles_outside_texture beforehand.

int create_alternative_tile ( Vector2i atlas_coords, int alternative_id_override=-1 )

Creates an alternative tile for the tile at coordinates atlas_coords. If alternative_id_override is -1, give it an automatically generated unique ID, or assigns it the given ID otherwise.

Returns the new alternative identifier, or -1 if the alternative could not be created with a provided alternative_id_override.

void create_tile ( Vector2i atlas_coords, Vector2i size=Vector2i(1, 1) )

Creates a new tile at coordinates atlas_coords with the given size.

Vector2i get_atlas_grid_size ( ) const

Returns the atlas grid size, which depends on how many tiles can fit in the texture. It thus depends on the Texture's size, the atlas margins the tiles' texture_region_size.

int get_next_alternative_tile_id ( Vector2i atlas_coords ) const

Returns the alternative ID a following call to create_alternative_tile would return.

Texture2D get_runtime_texture ( ) const

If use_texture_padding is false, returns texture. Otherwise, returns and internal ImageTexture created that includes the padding.

Rect2i get_runtime_tile_texture_region ( Vector2i atlas_coords, int frame ) const

Returns the region of the tile at coordinates atlas_coords for the given frame inside the texture returned by get_runtime_texture.

Note: If use_texture_padding is false, returns the same as get_tile_texture_region.

int get_tile_animation_columns ( Vector2i atlas_coords ) const

Returns how many columns the tile at atlas_coords has in its animation layout.

float get_tile_animation_frame_duration ( Vector2i atlas_coords, int frame_index ) const

Returns the animation frame duration of frame frame_index for the tile at coordinates atlas_coords.

int get_tile_animation_frames_count ( Vector2i atlas_coords ) const

Returns how many animation frames has the tile at coordinates atlas_coords.

TileAnimationMode get_tile_animation_mode ( Vector2i atlas_coords ) const

Returns the TileAnimationMode of the tile at atlas_coords. See also set_tile_animation_mode.

Vector2i get_tile_animation_separation ( Vector2i atlas_coords ) const

Returns the separation (as in the atlas grid) between each frame of an animated tile at coordinates atlas_coords.

float get_tile_animation_speed ( Vector2i atlas_coords ) const

Returns the animation speed of the tile at coordinates atlas_coords.

float get_tile_animation_total_duration ( Vector2i atlas_coords ) const

Returns the sum of the sum of the frame durations of the tile at coordinates atlas_coords. This value needs to be divided by the animation speed to get the actual animation loop duration.

Vector2i get_tile_at_coords ( Vector2i atlas_coords ) const

If there is a tile covering the atlas_coords coordinates, returns the top-left coordinates of the tile (thus its coordinate ID). Returns Vector2i(-1, -1) otherwise.

TileData get_tile_data ( Vector2i atlas_coords, int alternative_tile ) const

Returns the TileData object for the given atlas coordinates and alternative ID.

Vector2i get_tile_size_in_atlas ( Vector2i atlas_coords ) const

Returns the size of the tile (in the grid coordinates system) at coordinates atlas_coords.

Rect2i get_tile_texture_region ( Vector2i atlas_coords, int frame=0 ) const

Returns a tile's texture region in the atlas texture. For animated tiles, a frame argument might be provided for the different frames of the animation.

PackedVector2Array get_tiles_to_be_removed_on_change ( Texture2D texture, Vector2i margins, Vector2i separation, Vector2i texture_region_size )

Returns an array of tiles coordinates ID that will be automatically removed when modifying one or several of those properties: texture, margins, separation or texture_region_size. This can be used to undo changes that would have caused tiles data loss.

bool has_room_for_tile ( Vector2i atlas_coords, Vector2i size, int animation_columns, Vector2i animation_separation, int frames_count, Vector2i ignored_tile=Vector2i(-1, -1) ) const

Returns whether there is enough room in an atlas to create/modify a tile with the given properties. If ignored_tile is provided, act as is the given tile was not present in the atlas. This may be used when you want to modify a tile's properties.

bool has_tiles_outside_texture ( ) const

Checks if the source has any tiles that don't fit the texture area (either partially or completely).

void move_tile_in_atlas ( Vector2i atlas_coords, Vector2i new_atlas_coords=Vector2i(-1, -1), Vector2i new_size=Vector2i(-1, -1) )

Move the tile and its alternatives at the atlas_coords coordinates to the new_atlas_coords coordinates with the new_size size. This functions will fail if a tile is already present in the given area.

If new_atlas_coords is Vector2i(-1, -1), keeps the tile's coordinates. If new_size is Vector2i(-1, -1), keeps the tile's size.

To avoid an error, first check if a move is possible using has_room_for_tile.

void remove_alternative_tile ( Vector2i atlas_coords, int alternative_tile )

Remove a tile's alternative with alternative ID alternative_tile.

Calling this function with alternative_tile equals to 0 will fail, as the base tile alternative cannot be removed.

void remove_tile ( Vector2i atlas_coords )

Remove a tile and its alternative at coordinates atlas_coords.

void set_alternative_tile_id ( Vector2i atlas_coords, int alternative_tile, int new_id )

Change a tile's alternative ID from alternative_tile to new_id.

Calling this function with new_id of 0 will fail, as the base tile alternative cannot be moved.

void set_tile_animation_columns ( Vector2i atlas_coords, int frame_columns )

Sets the number of columns in the animation layout of the tile at coordinates atlas_coords. If set to 0, then the different frames of the animation are laid out as a single horizontal line in the atlas.

void set_tile_animation_frame_duration ( Vector2i atlas_coords, int frame_index, float duration )

Sets the animation frame duration of frame frame_index for the tile at coordinates atlas_coords.

void set_tile_animation_frames_count ( Vector2i atlas_coords, int frames_count )

Sets how many animation frames the tile at coordinates atlas_coords has.

void set_tile_animation_mode ( Vector2i atlas_coords, TileAnimationMode mode )

Sets the TileAnimationMode of the tile at atlas_coords to mode. See also get_tile_animation_mode.

void set_tile_animation_separation ( Vector2i atlas_coords, Vector2i separation )

Sets the margin (in grid tiles) between each tile in the animation layout of the tile at coordinates atlas_coords has.

void set_tile_animation_speed ( Vector2i atlas_coords, float speed )

Sets the animation speed of the tile at coordinates atlas_coords has.
