tilemap-set-tile-flags	Set the per-cell tint color and/or transform (flip X/Y, Z rotation, scale) of a tile already painted into a Tilemap. Unlocks the relevant TileFlags so the overrides take effect.	generated-by mcp-plugin-dotnet

Tilemap / Set Tile Color + Transform

Override the per-cell color and transform of a single tile in a Tilemap.

Inputs

• gameObjectRef — the GameObject hosting the Tilemap (required).
• x, y, z — the cell coordinate (z defaults to 0).
• color — optional per-cell tint color; unlocks TileFlags.LockColor when applied.
• flipX, flipY — optional booleans to mirror the tile.
• rotationZ — optional Z rotation in degrees.
• scale — optional uniform/again per-axis scale (default identity).

Behavior

When a color is given, removes TileFlags.LockColor then calls SetColor. When any transform argument is given, removes TileFlags.LockTransform then builds a TRS matrix and calls SetTransformMatrix. Marks the scene dirty and repaints. Runs on the Unity main thread.

How to Call

unity-mcp-cli run-tool tilemap-set-tile-flags --input '{
  "gameObjectRef": "string_value",
  "x": 0,
  "y": 0,
  "z": 0,
  "color": "string_value",
  "flipX": "string_value",
  "flipY": "string_value",
  "rotationZ": "string_value",
  "scale": "string_value"
}'

For complex input (multi-line strings, code), save the JSON to a file and use:

unity-mcp-cli run-tool tilemap-set-tile-flags --input-file args.json

Or pipe via stdin (recommended):

unity-mcp-cli run-tool tilemap-set-tile-flags --input-file - <<'EOF'
{"param": "value"}
EOF

Troubleshooting

If unity-mcp-cli is not found, either install it globally (npm install -g unity-mcp-cli) or use npx unity-mcp-cli instead. Read the /unity-initial-setup skill for detailed installation instructions.

Input

Name	Type	Required	Description
gameObjectRef	any	Yes	Reference to the GameObject containing the Tilemap component.
x	integer	Yes	Cell X coordinate.
y	integer	Yes	Cell Y coordinate.
z	integer	No	Cell Z coordinate (default 0).
color	any	No	Optional per-cell tint color.
flipX	any	No	Optional: mirror the tile horizontally.
flipY	any	No	Optional: mirror the tile vertically.
rotationZ	any	No	Optional: Z rotation in degrees.
scale	any	No	Optional per-axis scale (default (1,1,1)).
