tilemap-set-tile	Paint a single tile (a TileBase asset such as a Tile or RuleTile) into a Tilemap at a given cell coordinate. Pass a null/empty tileAssetPath to erase the cell.	generated-by mcp-plugin-dotnet

Tilemap / Set Tile

Set the tile at a single cell of a Tilemap. The tile is loaded from an Assets/-rooted path to any TileBase asset (a Tile, RuleTile, etc.).

Inputs

• gameObjectRef — the GameObject hosting the Tilemap (required).
• x, y, z — the integer cell coordinate (z defaults to 0).
• tileAssetPath — Assets/-rooted path to the TileBase asset; null/empty erases the cell.

Behavior

Loads the tile asset (when supplied), calls Tilemap.SetTile(cell, tile), marks the scene dirty, and repaints. Runs on the Unity main thread.

How to Call

unity-mcp-cli run-tool tilemap-set-tile --input '{
  "gameObjectRef": "string_value",
  "x": 0,
  "y": 0,
  "z": 0,
  "tileAssetPath": "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 --input-file args.json

Or pipe via stdin (recommended):

unity-mcp-cli run-tool tilemap-set-tile --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).
tileAssetPath	string	No	Assets/-rooted path to the TileBase asset to paint. Null/empty erases the cell.
