Map Making

This page will teach you how you can make your very own WarLight map! For even more help, see this video.

Overview

Creating a WarLight map is a four-step process. See the links below for instructions on how to accomplish each of these steps.

1. Create your SVG file (defines what the map looks like)
2. Enter the details (connections, bonuses, etc.)
3. Test the map (play games on it to ensure it works correctly)
4. Mark the map as public (allows the public to play your map)
