sooo, what i need is a tile set chooser based on if a object is next to it simalar to the heuchler
for this animation please just send screenshot. thanks!
Just use once → raycast and make it use logic gates to pick the correct one, it may take a bit though since it requires a lot of trial and error until it’s perfect

Use a series of raycasts hooked up in four directions, then have them go to a frame in an animation accordingly.
Example:
If your raycasts find a block for all four sides, then it’s a center block.
If your raycasts can only find a block on the top and on the left, then it’s a bottom right corner block.
Etc, etc.

pretty much this, a trick I did is to add a certain number if a ray cast hits and then use filters to figure out which frame of an animation to play
Mine is a little complicated but that’s because I have a lot of different animations

This is a good example of the system I was describing. Don’t copy it exactly, though; only do what suits your needs 
I have a complex example for tilemaps with every angle needed, but I can make a simple one right quick.
hmmmm lets trim that circut board
why thank you, @JR01 !
I suprised no body made an example for this by now
Because you can’t make an easy copy paste version of this

Agent_Y is right, plus you literally never make these systems for yourself, nor do you even try when we explain how to do it. You’d probably be 5 times better at coding if in the past you didn’t just make most of your code our code.

I have made an example, like I said its very complex but allows for the most specific map arrangement. This is my post on my Advance Tilemape system.

Your map is very simple, so you don’t need the complex stuff. I’ve been meaning to make a simple version for a while anyways.
Just be sure to match the animation found in the ground block.

What I did in the Heuchler was a lot of code and ray casting, but it was basically like:
Right and left raycast hit, horizontal wall
Right and top raycast hit, bottom left wall
…
…
Etc.
It was a once that detected ray casting in all four directions and depending on what was hit would change the animation of the wall.
