Collaboration: Zones
A zone is defined by two entities: its locator and its zone properties. They are stored in different locations.
The data of zone locator is stored in the Media\prebuild\<level_name>\_zones.xml
.
However, if a zone is within a particular group, the same info on the zone locator is stored in the Media\prebuild\<level_name>\subgroups
folder, in the XML file of the group.
The data on zone properties is stored in the zone_settings.json
file within the Media\levels\<level_name>
folder.
Thus, when a modder adds a zone, this modder needs to send the following to other modders:
-
The piece of XML code with info on zone locator – either from
_zones.xml
or from the XML file of the group. -
The piece of JSON code with zone properties – from
zone_settings.json
.
