# Helpful Tools
The asset includes several helpful editor tools that make it easier to set up tile collections.
You can access them through the menu bar `Tools / Stix Games | Tile Composer`.
## Create tile component on selected
This helper creates a tile component on each selected object.
## Create a tile hierarchy from selected
This helper treats the selected objects as a hierarchy of tiles, e.g. the parent will be the base tile and children will be tiles that inherit properties from it.
Additionally, the tool creates a parent object for each tile.
## Create tile variation
If you want to create a slight variation of a finished tile, use this helper, it will copy the selected tile and make the original the base tile of the parent.
## Create tile replacement
When using the `Auto-set neighbors from mesh` feature there can be situations where you want to make manual changes, but still want to be able to iterate the base mesh.
In this case you can create a tile replacement: Create a copy, make the original the base tile, then deaktivate the original. `Auto-set neighbors from mesh` will still use the disabled original, and your changes will not be overridden.
