2D equivalent of Terrain?
Hello, I am currently wondering what the 2D equivalent for the Terrain gameobject is.
Currently working on a game and I would like to have a canvas of sorts that I can draw on using texture(.tga) files.
As far as I can tell thus far; there does not seem to be a 2D equivalent of Terrain in Unity.
One alternative would be to make a sprite and use that instead of terrain; however that would be somewhat limiting as I am interested in exploring dynamic terrain options.
Thanks for taking the time to read this and I hope I can have some tips.
In term of "2D Terrains", there is Ferr2D, a paid asset available on the Asset Store and also a beta version, made-by-Unity alternative 2D terrain tool.
If you want to paint on a surface, I suggest to use QuickBrush, which essentially mimic what Unity terrain does but isn't restricted to terrain. You can use it to draw anything on any surface with a collider, including 2D sprites.
there's not 2D terrain
you can use sprite with collider (if you need physics) or just sprite if you do positioning by code
