## Tutorial to Using the Widelands Map Editor ¶### Create a New Map ¶
¶
We begin by launching the Editor from the Widelands Main Menu. The Editor starts up with a standard map, flat, consisting of steppe, 64 fields broad and high. For starters, let's create our own map with different settings. ¶
¶
¶
¶
<table class="mediawikitable"> ¶
<tr> ¶
<td></td> ¶
<td>To do that, we open the Editor's Main Menu (the most left button at the screen's bottom) and choose New Map.</td> ¶
</tr> ¶
</table> ¶
¶
¶
¶
This opens the New Map Options Menu. Now is the time to reflect what kind of map we want to create - huge, small, square or not, which kind of world (blackland, desert, greenland or winterland?) and so on. ¶
Let us make a rather small map, higher than wide, for a quick game between two players. ¶
¶
¶
¶
¶
<table class="mediawikitable"> ¶
<tr> ¶
<td></td> ¶
<td> We increase the map's width to 80 and the height to 96. As world type we choose greenland. To have the Editor generate the map we click at Create Map.</td> ¶
</tr> ¶
</table> ¶
¶
¶
The Editor now creates a map of desired size. It is absolutely flat and plain, consisting solely of steppe-terrain. ¶
¶
Now it's up to us to EditorTutorialShapeTerrain to an island fun to play upon. ¶
