Editor Shared Material

Question

I am making a simple tile map generator that generates a plane and a tilemap on it in the Editor. When I try to change the offset for different tiles, I have to use sharedMaterials or else there is a material leakage.

Is there a way to change the offset in the code without manually changing each tile by hand.

Thanks!!!

Sounds like each tile needs its own unique Material (which would share the same texture)

So your saying that I would have to offset each tile I want as a new material and then assign each plane to that tile?

For each tile, create new material, assign that one texture to it, offset each material accordingly. You might make a na$$anonymous$$g convention like $$anonymous$$at1_1 $$anonymous$$at1_2 etc. to tell them apart. BTW if you are just doing this to use one material across a bunch of objects, you might be interested in triplanar shaders like in Voxelform.
