I am trying to have my player land on a tile and if it lands on that tile place a new tile to the side of the tile you land on. Currently how I have it, it will place the new tile on the first starting one.I added a photo to help make sense of what im trying to achieve. The white cube is the player and I want that red tile to the left of the blue to be to the left of the one I am on.Instantiate(mutatedTile, new Vector3(-2, 0, 0), Quaternion.identity);

There are a lot of tutorials on detecting where hits/collisions were. Try finding one as it covers wht you need – BugFinder Aug 08 '21 at 22:05

Suppose that one tile occupies one unit, then if you want, for example, to place a tile:
To the left of the player:
tile.position = new Vector3(Mathf.RoundToInt(player.position.x) - 1, player.position.y, player.position.z);
In front of the player:
tile.position = new Vector3(player.position.x, player.position.y, Math.RoundToInt(player.position.z) - 1);
In this way, the tiles are placed on an abstract grid with integer coordinates.
P.S.: If your tile occupies more than one unit, then you need to round it with a certain step. For example, if your tile is 10x10 in size, then it is necessary that the coordinates are a multiple of 10. If you need a function for rounding in increments, then you can ask - I'll throw it off.
I hope I came up with an idea.

This seems like it would definitely work but I am very new to this.. I am not sure how I would go about actually adding this in. – Chris Aug 08 '21 at 20:02

Try to do this after creating the tile: var tile = Instantiate(Object); tile.transform.position = new Vector3(Mathf.RoundToInt(player.position.x) - 1, player.position.y, player.position.z); Where "player" is the Transform of the cube. – Yili Aug 09 '21 at 05:25

It depends on what is the front for the camera. And besides, there is not much difference, anyone has enough brains to change "-" from"+". – Yili Aug 09 '21 at 15:29
