Question
Hi. I’m trying to use Set_cell_terrain_connect at runtime to display tiles in a procedurally generated world, split into 3x3 chunks of 50x50 tiles.
Set_cell_terrain_connect() is the function used to do this, but as the performance is extremely slow, I’m looking for another alternative.
- Not doing this at runtime is not an option
- Building the tilemap on a separate thread apart from the scene tree then adding it later is not an option, as interacting with the scene tree from a thread is not safe, and neither is just editing a TileMap on a thread at all.
- Performing the calculation work for the tiles on a thread, and then setting them on the main thread is not an option, as the actual function set_cell_terrain_connect is slow.
So I don’t really see any good options. I’d rather not switch to a different engine if I can avoid it.
