<h1>TilemapLayer<a class="headerlink" href="#tilemaplayer" title="Link to this heading"></a></h1>
<p>A <strong>Tilemap Layer</strong> is a display object that shows a map based on tiles. There are two <a class="reference external" href="https://phaser.io">Phaser</a> built-in types dedicated to this, the <a class="reference external" href="https://photonstorm.github.io/phaser3-docs/Phaser.Tilemaps.StaticTilemapLayer.html">StaticTilemapLayer</a> and the the <a class="reference external" href="https://photonstorm.github.io/phaser3-docs/Phaser.Tilemaps.StaticTilemapLayer.html">DynamicTilemapLayer</a>.</p>
<p>The main difference is that a static layer is read-only but faster, while you can modify the tiles of a dynamic layer.</p>
<p>To create a tilemap layer, first, you have to <a class="reference external" href="tilemap-object.html">create a Tilemap object</a>. Then, you can drag the <strong>StaticTilemapLayer</strong> or <strong>DynamicTilemapLayer</strong> from the <a class="reference external" href="blocks-view-integration.html">Blocks view</a> and drop it in the scene:</p>
<img alt="Adding a tilemap layer." src="../_images/scene-editor-add-tilemap-layer-1-10152020.webp" />
<p>The <a class="reference external" href="../scene-editor/index.html">Scene Editor</a> does not support empty tilemap layers, and you have to select one of the layers defined in any of the tilemaps created in the scene:</p>
<img alt="Selecting the layer." src="../_images/scene-editor-add-tilemap-layer-2-10152020.webp" />
<p>And that’s all, the tilemap layer is displayed in the scene:</p>
<img alt="The layer is created in the scene." src="../_images/scene-editor-add-tilemap-layer-2310152020.webp" />
<p>When you save the scene, the <a class="reference external" href="../scene-editor/scene-compiler.html">scene compiler</a> generates the code of the tilemap layer using the <a class="reference external" href="https://photonstorm.github.io/phaser3-docs/Phaser.Tilemaps.Tilemap.html#createStaticLayer__anchor">createStaticLayer</a> or <a class="reference external" href="https://photonstorm.github.io/phaser3-docs/Phaser.Tilemaps.Tilemap.html#createDynamicLayer__anchor">createDynamicLayer</a> methods.</p>
<p>In the next code, a new static layer is created, using the the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">World1</span></code> layer data and the <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">SuperMarioBros-World1-1</span></code> tileset:</p>
<div class="highlight-javascript notranslate"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="c1">// world1</span>
<span class="nx">super_mario_1</span><span class="p">.</span><span class="nx">createStaticLayer</span><span class="p">(</span><span class="s2">&quot;World1&quot;</span><span class="p">,</span><span class="w"> </span><span class="p">[</span><span class="s2">&quot;SuperMarioBros-World1-1&quot;</span><span class="p">],</span><span class="w"> </span><span class="mf">107</span><span class="p">,</span><span class="w"> </span><span class="mf">110</span><span class="p">);</span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>A layer may use only a subset of the tilesets defined in a tilemap. The compiler scans all the layer’s tiles and uses as argument only the name of the tilesets referenced in the tiles.</p>
<p>A tilemap layer has a lot of utility methods and properties, so probably you may want to assign it to a field by setting its <a class="reference external" href="variable-properties.html#scope-property">variable scope</a> to <code class="docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">Class</span></code>.</p>
<p>When you select a tilemap layer, the <a class="reference external" href="../workbench/inspector-view.html">Inspector view</a> shows some of the properties of the layer (all of them are read-only):</p>
<img alt="Tilemap layer properties." src="../_images/scene-editor-tilemap-layer-properties-2310152020.webp" />
<p>Also, because it is a display object, other common properties are available:</p>
<ul class="simple">
<li><p><a class="reference external" href="variable-properties.html">Variable properties</a></p></li>
<li><p><a class="reference external" href="lists-properties.html">Lists properties</a></p></li>
<li><p><a class="reference external" href="transform-properties.html">Transform properties</a></p></li>
<li><p><a class="reference external" href="visible-property.html">Visible property</a></p></li>
</ul>
