Map Editor Overview†

The map editor is the main tool in game creation, creating the terrain and buildings where the game will take place and placing events related to the storyline.
The structure and functions of the map editor are as follows.

1) Editor Screen†

This is the main work screen of the Map Editor, where you change the form of the terrain and place objects and events.

The working camera can be rotated by right dragging.
Center-drag or hold down the Shift key and right-drag to scroll in the X-axis and Z-axis directions.

Zoom in/out by rotating the wheel.

• 3D Display Icons
  This icon appears in the upper left corner of the editor screen.
  • Clicking on each of the X, Y, and Z cubes will give you a viewpoint from each axis.
  • Left click to turn on/off perspective
  • Click on the icon in the upper left corner of the preview screen to open the "Editor Settings" tab of the "Map Settings" palette.

• Map Symbols
  The following map symbols will be placed on maps when events, lights, etc. are placed.
  The display of the map symbols can be toggled on and off using the buttons at (4), the bottom of the Map Editor.

Context Menu†

If you right-click while selecting something on the map, a context menu will appear.
The context menu that appears changes depending on whether terrain, object, or event is selected.

• Selecting Terrain
  

  Raise by 1 Level	Raise the Y-coordinate of the currently selected terrain by one step (0.25).
  Lower by 1 Level	Lower the Y-coordinate of the currently selected terrain by one step (0.25).
  Align at Higher Elevation	If you have selected terrain of different elevations, align the Y-coordinate plane to the higher one.
  Align at Lower Elevation	If you have selected terrain of different elevations, align the Y-coordinate plane to the lower one.
  Make Elevation Zero	Set the elevation of the currently selected terrain to the lowest (Y=0.25).
  Make it Slope	Convert terrain with steps to a slope with the assigned orientation. Used on terrain with higher steps. Multiple adjacent terrains can be selected to make a slope. Slopes can only be connected by up to 4 levels of elevation difference.
  Make it Stairs	Convert terrain with steps to a slope with the assigned orientation. Used on terrain with higher steps. Multiple adjacent terrains can be selected to make stairs. Stairs can be connected by up to four different elevation levels.
  Make it Corner	It is a function that makes the two adjacent sides of the terrain a slope or stairs, and the break in the terrain is also a slope or stairs. The elevation of the terrain to be angled should be the same as that of the slope or stairs.
  Make it Flat	Sloping terrain such as "Make it Slope" and "Make it Stairs" will be undone.
  Make This the Starting Point	Specify the selected point as the position of the main cast member at the beginning of the game.
  Export Model	Export the currently selected terrain as a 3D model (.fbx).
  Cut	Cut the currently selected terrain.
  Copy	Copy the currently selected terrain.
  Paste	Paste the copied terrain.
  Delete	(Terrain cannot be deleted.)
  Undo	Undo the operation.
  Redo	Redo the operation.

• Model Export of Terrain
  This function allows you to export the currently selected terrain as model data in FBX format.
  By successfully combining 3D modeled terrain, it is also possible to represent terrain with holes in it, for example.

  - When exporting, all areas above "elevation 0" are exported.

  - If you want your exported model to look the same as the terrain when imported into Bakin, go to Resources > Materials and assign "map_terrain" to Shader.

  
  • Add Bottom Surface
    If checked, the export will be done with the bottom side attached.
  • Contain Map Objects
    If checked, the export will include objects on the selected terrain.
    The following restrictions apply to objects:

    - Collisions are not fully reproduced.

    - Motions will not be reproduced.

    - The materials will be the fbx defaults.

• Create the Collision File
  When exporting, collision files are generated at the same time.

• Normal Dividing Boundary (Degree)
   

• Selecting Objects
  

  Convert to Event	Convert the selected object to an event.
  Raise by 1 Level	Raise the Y-coordinate of the currently selected objects/events by one step (0.25).
  Lower by 1 Level	Lower the Y-coordinate of the currently selected objects/events by one step (0.25).
  Put it on Terrain	Place the objects/events floating in the air on the ground.
  Y Rotation	Rotate the selected objects/events by 45 degrees around the Y axis.
  X Rotation	Rotate the selected objects/events 45 degrees around the X axis.
  Make This the Starting Point	Specify the selected point as the position of the main cast member at the beginning of the game.
  Group	Group multiple selected objects/events. All grouped objects/events can be repositioned, resized, etc. at the same time.
  Ungroup	Ungrouping is performed by selecting any object in the group. Any object in the group can be selected for ungrouping.
  Cut	Cut the currently selected objects.
  Copy	Copy the currently selected objects.
  Paste	Paste the copied objects.
  Delete	Delete the currently selected objects.
  Undo	Undo the operation.
  Redo	Redo the operation.

   
• Selecting Events
  

  Edit Event Script	Open the Event Editor.
  Memorize Position	If turned on, this event will retain its post-movement position even if the player moves to another map after using a movement-based event to change this event's position on the map.
  Falling by Gravity	If turned on, that event will fall by gravity when play begins. When turned off, it maintains the Y-axis position and events that are suspended in mid-air remain suspended in mid-air. This setting affects the behavior of movement events and other events.
  Raise by 1 Level	Raise the Y-coordinate of the currently selected objects/events by one step (0.25).
  Lower by 1 Level	Lower the Y-coordinate of the currently selected objects/events by one step (0.25).
  Put it on Terrain	Place the objects/events floating in the air on the ground.
  Y Rotation	Rotate the selected objects/events by 45 degrees around the Y axis.
  X Rotation	Rotate the selected objects/events 45 degrees around the X axis.
  Make This the Starting Point	Specify the selected point as the position of the main cast member at the beginning of the game.
  Group	Group multiple selected objects/events. All grouped objects/events can be repositioned, resized, etc. at the same time.
  Ungroup	Ungrouping is performed by selecting any object in the group. Any object in the group can be selected for ungrouping.
  Event Symbol Color	You can specify the color of the "event symbols" that represent events that do not have graphics assigned to them in the Map Editor.
  Cut	Cut the currently selected events.
  Copy	Copy the currently selected events.
  Paste	Paste the copied events.
  Delete	Delete the currently selected events.
  Undo	Undo the operation.
  Redo	Redo the operation.

• Event Symbol Color
  This feature allows you to color "event symbols" that represent events that do not have graphics assigned to them in the Map Editor.
  Eight colors are available.
  For example, "red for camera control events" and "white for off-map movement events" can be used to classify events by type.
