Custom Maps Loader: Beta 5 | Map Template: V2

Custom Maps Loader

Changes:

• Using the recommended and preset loading method, entering a map that doesn't exist will now trigger an error message instead of kicking you to the main menu.

• Using the alternative loading method, entering an empty text should trigger an error. Entering a wrong map name will still kick you to the menu because of the way this second method works.

• Added a little orange outline to the title, because why not

Map Template

I changed the settings and added things. See what it does:

• The spawn position blueprint is already set to spawn automatically inside the template level (Spawn Points will work by default!)

  • It will not be packed, it's only a reference. Don't worry about it and don't touch the "Character" folder if you don't know what you are doing!

• Your project will always package with the "Shipping" method

• The engine content will not be packaged (It can reduce file size in some cases)
