h1. CreatingNewContinent

Adding a new continent:

You need:

- a name, I used "crater"

You will make:

- a .land file (continent map)

- .primitives (zones & ai)

How to add:

- Create pipeline configuration files under R:\code\ryzom\tools\build_gamedata\workspace\continents\crater

- Add [1] to R:\code\ryzom\tools\build_gamedata\workspace\projects.py

- Run "0_setup.py -ipj continents/crater"

- Create L:\leveldesign\World\crater\crater.continent

- Add the continent to L:\leveldesign\World\ryzom.world

- Run leveldesign_dev.bat pipeline script

- Use World Editor, make a new land, save as crater.worldedit and crater.land under W:\database\landscape\ligo\rocky

- In the land file, the x and y lines need to be changed to a block where your landscape will be, I don't know where to do this in the we ui, so I did it manually in the file, and reopen.

- Place the necesarry ligo blocks in zone mode

- Create a region primitive L:\primitives\crater\region_crater.primitive

- Draw the continent border

- Draw the region borders

- Add the primitive to L:\primitives\file_index.cfg and primitives.cfg

- Add [2] to entities_game_service.cfg

- Add [3] to used_continents.cfg

- Add the continent to R:\code\ryzom\common\src\game_share\continent.h&cpp (needs to be exactly same order and count as ryzom.world!)

- Compile & send stuff to your server and compile there too

- Run the export, build, and install scripts for continents/crater, and run data shard script too, and dev client

- Sync the built shard data (collisions etc) to your shard (you can use 8_upload)

- Set up an ai service for the crater continent (have not tried that)

- Run everything
