In addition to the visible texture, each tile had a lower resolution bitmap which defined the material at a given spot. They are now baked into tiles, so map editing is much easier. The new tileset is coming together nicely. I made a “master sheet” with all the tiles to keep things organized.

Efficient Use of Textures Textures are a significant component of mobile game visuals, but high-resolution textures can quickly consume memory and processing power.

Ensure your meshes are marked as "Static Bake", then enable SDFGI in the Environment settings. What can it do?

Almost every 3D asset is painted using only one atlas texture. As I mentioned before – almost every 3D object uses the same atlas texture. They are textured using the same atlas map and need to fit into the grid size. Obviously that wouldn’t be enough if we didn’t apply different colors assigned to the players.
