Combined with the knowledge of the rendering, the texture is actually very close to the rendering vertex data. If I can pass this texture in between the direct rendering, then I get a 2D real fabric. can all be achieved this way!

TileMap can now display navigation regions as debugging information (it's hard to see on the picture here, as it's light green over green). In a way similar to TileSet's physics layers , TileSet's navigation layers may allow you to set different navigation layers. Note that navigation in TileMap is still a little bit rough on the edges.
