Tilemaps.Tilemap.SetTile() 据说不存在（Unity）

Question

Relevant piece of code:

using System.Collections;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using UnityEngine;
using UnityEngine.Tilemaps;

public class Generation : MonoBehaviour
{
    private int[,] CavePoints;

    public RuleTile Stone;

    public Camera Camera;

    private int CurrentMapLength = 0;

    private void Awake()
    {
        SewerGeneration(5);
    }

    void Start()
    {
        PlaceGrid();
    }

    public void SewerGeneration
    {
        *Code*
    }

    //Place Tiles on grid

    private void PlaceGrid()
    {
        for (int x = 0; x < CurrentMapLength + 1; x++) //width of map
        {
            for (int y = 0; y < 56; y++) //height of map
            {
                try
                {
                    if (CavePoints[x, y] == 1)    //CHANGE TO CavePoints
                    {
                        Tilemap.SetTile(new Vector3Int(x, y, 0), Stone);
                    }
                }catch (System.Exception e)
                {

                }
            }
        }
    }
}

However, the Tilemap.SetTile() under the function PlaceGrid() returns:

Assets/Scripts/Generation.cs(124,25): error CS0120: An object reference is required for the non-static field, method, or property 'Tilemap.SetTile(Vector3Int, TileBase)'

I then added Tilemaps. in front of the SetTile, and the code returned this:

Assets/Scripts/Generation.cs(124,25): error CS0103: The name 'Tilemaps' does not exist in the current context

Adding UnityEngine and removing Tilemap also yielded similar results.

Help appreciated. Thanks.

Answer 1

as the error tells you Tilemap.SetTile is not a static method.

You cannot simply call it via the type like

Tilemap.SetTile(...);

you rather need a reference to an instance of Tilemap eg like

[SerializeField] private Tilemap myTilemap;

assign this via the Inspector in Unity by drag&drop the according object/component into that field and then do

myTilemap.SetTile(...);
