How to change map location

To jump to a specific location during runtime, use the ChangeView method from the MapboxMap class:

public void ChangeView(LatitudeLongitude? latlng = null, float? zoom = null, float? pitch = null, float? bearing = null)

This method updates the map with the provided parameters and triggers a redraw.

The first step is to get the map object. You can learn more about that in the short tutorial Working with map object.

Once you have access to the map object, you can call the method directly. A sample script is shown below:

public class ChangeLocation : MonoBehaviour
{
    public MapBehaviourCore Core;
    private MapboxMap _map;
    
    private void Awake()
    {
        Core.Initialized += map =>
        {
            _map = map;
        };
    }
    
    public void ChangeLocationTo(string location)
    {
        _map.ChangeView(Conversions.StringToLatLon(location));
    }
}
