New 2D Tools in 2017.2
summary
Unity 2017.2 introduces a Tilemap system that lets you paint grid levels and automatically generates accurate collision by deriving physics shape data from each sprite so colliders match artwork, plus a Tilemap Collider that merges tile shapes into ready-to-play geometry. Sprite packing moves to a Sprite Atlas asset that auto-packs folders at build time. Tiles are extensible (rule tiles for neighbor-aware edges) and custom brushes can paint gameplay-prefab logic (demo places laser turrets) and work as advertised.
