Editor Manual

Post by OBG_primetide »

If you want to dive into the Editor - here is a handy Manual for that!

Sweet! Any chance of adding a random map generator in the editor in the future?
Thanks

We are already testing our random map generation in the editor but it needs some more UI work to be able to be released. I did just throw together something quickly back then with what is called "Programmer Art" (synonymous for hideous :) )

Thanks ObG_Chris! I can't wait to get my hands on this :P . It would add so much more value to this game and would make it much easier to make your own scenarios. I hope it is released soon (my second wish being adding more sides than three in the skirmish map).

The skirmish system already allows several sides, we currently just don't have maps for it (which the editor solves). As for procedural maps this will need some more work to make better maps that work for more than 2 players, but the stuff we are currently creating for the dlc might help there.

Take your time on the dlc.. we want it to be packed with a lot of new goodies. I hope 🤞 it will feel more like an expansion like in the good old days.

The link in the OP does not work for me - is it still available?

My main question, which the manual might answer, is can we make our own campaigns with conversations and options, custom map and links to maps? That is, can we make our own 'Invasion' or 'Aflame'?

Unfortunately, the editor currently only allows skirmish maps to be built (though you can go and modify existing maps and create your own versions of that)

Are you planning to do any more improvements in the near future for the Random Map Generator to have more sides and more options?
Thanks

Editor manual deleted from Dropbox, apparently!

Please, I've designed my own map but would like to understand more about the activations, etc. - how do I access the Editor manual?

Edit:
Found it here!
