    Anyone got a good map for quickly testing various aspects of the game, ie. traps, kegs, bombs, buckets, fire, catapults etc.? :bomb::bucket: :keg::bow:!!!

    I realize I could spend an evening making one myself, but I can't help but think someone already did :flex:

    Sandbox should be good enough.
    If need mats:

    !mats_stone
    !mats_wood
    (To use these, type in your chat bar or use the Home key. Can't remember)

    Correct me if i'm wrong.

    The cvars are almost correct just without 's' so !mat_stone etc.

    Thanks, but that'd still mean I'd have to build a new fort from the ground up, before I can practice demolishing it - instead of simply reloading the map.

    Are there no premade maps already featuring various structures and factories?

    if you are in sandbox:
    build your tower
    open up console (home key on windows/linux, don't ask me where it is for mac cause I don't know, ask a mac user)
    type: /savemap name_you_want_map_called
    close console (press home key again)
    do your testing
    open console
    type: /loadmap name_of_map_you_saved_it_as
    close console
    do additional testing

    from this point on, you can just type /reloadmap (in console) every time you want the map to be loaded from scratch.

    Ah nice thanks :B):
    --- Double Post Merged, Nov 7, 2013, Original Post Date: Nov 7, 2013 ---
    I found a lists of commands to be used when you've set /sv_test 1 in the console. Finally figured out you had to write the commands (ie. !catapult) in the chat window, not in the console :) 25252525
    /savemap seems to work, ie. /savemap Test At saves a file named Test.kag in my [Steam\steamapps\common\King Arthur's Gold\Base\Maps] folder :migrant:

    However when I load the map (/loadmap Test), I simply get a new random generated map - not the map I just saved. This happens even if I quit the game and start a new Solo Sandbox game???

    /reloadmap returns command [reloadmap] is not a valid command :oops:
    EDIT: /restartmap works, so looks like only /loadmap is the problem

    Seems like some of the commands are broken?

    for savemap, try savemap Test.png otherwise try /savebitmap Test

    /loadmap is working, it's just that it saved as a generator since that's what the original map was. Anyways once it is saved as a .png, just type /loadmap Test.png

    for /reloadmap it's actually /restartmap (iirc, was using it just yesterday, but I might have confused it with /reloadsecurity)

    Ok thanks, done some more testing :)

    When I use /savemap test.png, I actually get a test.png picture file in the same folder, one I can even open it in a normal graphics editor :rekt:

    However neither /loadmap test nor /loadmap test.png will load the map, it just gives me a new random map. Console log:
    Code:

    There is no /savebitmap command - but there is a /loadbitmap command.

    However:
    Code:
    [20:55:03] /loadbitmap test
    
    [20:55:03] *Restarting Map*
    [20:55:03] LOADING PNG MAP Maps/test.png

    [20:55:03] ADD SPAWN FOR Innocence
    
    I get a blank (all sky) screen.

    And:
    Code:
    [20:56:31] /loadbitmap test.png
    [20:56:31] *Restarting Map*
    [20:56:31] File not found Maps/test.png.png

    [20:56:31] ADD SPAWN FOR Innocence
    Now screen is filled with random blocks and it loops forever trying to create a spawn location.

    The loadbitmap command was imported from classic (it doesn't work correctly from beta)

    Anyways, find where your map is located when it's saved.
    If it's saved in the Maps folder, type: /loadmap Maps/Test.png
    If it's in some other subfolder, like in CTF or something, then type: /loadmap Maps/CTF/Test.png
    Basically it needs to know the exact directory of where it's found.

    Ok so I'm missing the path relative to the install folder. It's in the King Arthur's Gold\Base\Maps, and... /loadmap Maps\test.png worked!!!

    Thanks for helping out :r_flex::B)::flex:
