TileUpdateMode

public enum TileUpdateMode : Int
extension TileUpdateMode: CustomStringConvertible, CustomDebugStringConvertible

Overview

Describes how the tilemap updates its tiles in your scene. Changing this property will affect your CPU usage, so use it carefully.

The default mode is TileUpdateMode.dynamic, which updates tiles as needed each frame. For best performance, use TileUpdateMode.actions, which will run SpriteKit actions on animated tiles.

Usage

// passing the tile update mode to the load function
let tilemap = SKTilemap.load(tmxFile: String, updateMode: TileUpdateMode.dynamic)!

// updating the attribute on the tilemp node
tilemap.updateMode = TileUpdateMode.actions

Properties
