Age of Strategy Forums

Goodmorning, i am new of the Forum.

I have played the game many times and i enjoyed it.

How can i do to create new maps or content for it?
There is a tool that i can use, to create new maps? What about new units or structures?

Thanks and have a fantastic day!

There is map editor available. You can create your own map there.
As for units and structures those are different things. It needs json and images.

Thanks for the reply.

Where is the editor?

What are the rules for creating new units, if i create a good image for it? (32x64 pixels)

Thanks again

there is no editor you must find image editing software to draw the unit, after that you have to make stats and skills on your mind, thus when you are ready you must present it on the forum on its respective topic for everyone to see, after a discussion whether the unit will be added or not you'll need to ask for the code of a preexisting unit that you will have to edit with the stats agreed on the discussion, then your unit will be ready to be added on the next update.

usually units are 32x32 but if you need to you can use 32x64 this are the only acceptable sizes. unless you are making a mega structure

I think he was asking about the map editor tho - which is in the "others" section.

Thanks a lot.

Seems cool, i will try to do some basic maps to learn.

What about the units? How it works?

How is decided if the stats are good and balanced?
Do i need a JSON file? Do you have an example that i can study?

What about the image? Do you have some guidelines or rules to follow, to make a proper image?

Thanks and have a beautiful day!

Units needs to have : Approval from the moderator e.g. Alexander, endru1241, Midonik etc. In their variants. In this case its Alexander. It also needs balanced stats (Makazuwr and alexander are some of the greatest balancers in aof), json (idk how) and an image. 32×32 or 32×64 for units and different cases for mega buildings and other structures that occupies more than 1 tile. You could learn json on modders lounge. Images needs to be as nice as the existing units. Im not a good painter so ask someone else for guidelines.

Making the JSON is not needed if you are just suggesting an unit. That is usually done by the design leader or his helpers.
You should have a description and stats suggestions, as well as specify what role would the unit have in game. An ready image is a plus.
