The Widelands Editor enables you to create your own map. Place different terrains, lakes, stones, forests and mountains to build a wonderful world. After you have done it, you could also upload your map to our server to make it accesible to other players.

Start the Editor with the "Editor" button in Main menu . After loading you'll be prompted with a mainly green screen. On the bottom you find a menu, which consists of following functions:

• Bottom menu
  • Main menu - Load/save a map; Options like name and description
  • Tool menu - Place surfaces, trees and other things on the map
  • Tool size - How much area you like to change
  • Player options - Number and startposition of available players

Advanced hints:

• Some Immovables could disappear while game playing, if they are covered by roads or other buildings. This behaves only on little immovables like bushes.
