Hello, I’m working on creating a looping 2D Paper Tilemap. My goal is to make the tilemap loop seamlessly, so that when the character reaches the edge, the end of the tilemap connects with the beginning, as if the tilemap were a cylinder rather than a rectangle. To achieve this, I’ve set up an Act…

Alright, so I figured it out. I did a Blueprint of class ‘‘Paper Tile Map Actor’’. In this Blueprint, I added 2 tilemaps (A and B). Each map has 2 colliders (A1, A2 for map A, and B1 and B2 for map B). You must have a minimum of 2 tilemaps for this to work. If you only have 1, just split your tile…

It all looks pretty logical. I assume ‘scroll speed’ is negative. This works with ‘tiles’ where the pivot point is in the middle ( moves the first one initially ) [image] [moving billboards] Doesn’t work with higher speeds though ( they get out of position ). You might need to use a timeline to…

Thanks for the reply. I have 2 questions. 1- How do you move the pivot point of a Tilemap to the middle? I tried adjusting the center of mass offset or the pivot point, but no luck. The only other option I see would be to create a new Blueprint with a scene component as the root, attach the tile ma…

You don’t need to move the pivot, but things will be a little different if it’s at one end. That’s all :slight_smile: You’re right, I thought it was a ‘side runner’. If the tiles are only going to jump location when the player reaches a certain location, then tick is totally not the place to pu…

Looks good :slight_smile: I don’t get why you have a lag, though…
