Setting Material

Development Programming & Scripting Blueprint

But it cannot find a function named Set Material, so of course I cannot use a Set Material -> Get TileMesh -> Get TileMaterial

You need to ‘get’ your TileMesh variable, then drag the pin from it to get access to it’s functions (one of which is Set Material), or alternatively you could right click and disable context sensitivity, but you’re better off with the first method.
