Exporting the Map

We have created a map that is ready to be launched in the game. Now it needs to be packaged into a Zip archive.

To do this, open the Map Tools → Map Tools Window.

Configuring the Map Settings

Currently, the window displays settings for the Bodrograd map. To create your own map, click the Add Map button.

On the previous page, we ensured that the map folder structure is correct: a single scene file and a folder with all the map resources. In the first two fields, you need to select the scene file and the resource folder, which can be done by dragging and dropping:


After that, configure the remaining settings. In the end, mine turned out as follows:

Map Settings

Then, select the appropriate build button: Build for Android or Build for iOS depending on the device you will be testing on.

note

A map built for Android will not run on iOS, and vice versa. If you publish maps for public access, package both versions — first Build for Android, then Build for iOS.

After clicking the build button, wait for the process to complete. Upon successful export, a folder with the ready Zip archive will open.

Zip Archive

caution

If the folder with the Zip archive does not open, check the console for errors. Try to resolve them yourself or email dizarmiyt@gmail.com.

Now you have a ready-to-upload Zip archive for your map. In the next page, we will discuss installing the map in the game.
