The Map Editor, with detailed instructions is found here: viewtopic.php?f=10&t=1
This guide is meant for those who just want to look at certain files without getting into the full editor.
Also, it's meant to show how to interpret these files.
I'm going to assume that most are using a phone or other android device, as computer users should be able to figure non-android specific stuff out; but the info here can be used by all.
The text files tend to have the ".list" extension; if this causes a problem, just rename it to ".txt" extension, and it should work.
If you're looking for pictures or graphics, you'll need to go to assets/textures/; if you're looking for "skins", it's in assets/textures/units/
Now, let's look at some text files.
CHESTS
At this time, there is no easy way to find where a monster is found in FT; for that, just ask under Help Wanted on the forum.
That's all I got for now.
If requested, I may add more info if need be.
I also welcome the GM team to edit/update this post as the game advances, especially if I'm not around. (please make sure to update the date at the top as well)
Hope this helps
