Welcome to ARCADIA

ARCADIA is EVERYWHERE's content builder. The possibilities for experience creation are limitless here - Imagine it? Make it! This page goes over the HUD and menus in ARCADIA's Creator Mode.

Asset Library

This is a catalog of all items available for creating, such as furniture, logic, NPCs and vehicles.
You can search for Stamps under the Asset Library. Use either the section categories or the search bar at the top to navigate the library.
All items available for use in ARCADIA are found in the Asset Library on the left of the screen. Items are organised by theme and function.

Toolbar

This bar has all the main controls for editing and building an ARC as well as access to Publish settings, Testing, Performance Impact Score and Exiting creator. There's also buttons for hiding sections of the HUD to increase the Field Of View (FOV). Clicking on Assets, Settings and / or Tutorials while they are open, will collapse the left hand side panel for an increased FOV.
The Toolbar page goes through all the buttons on the Toolbar and their functions.

Settings

The Settings Panel is where you manage your ARC. In here, you can:

• Set the time of day, music, fog and skybox
• Setup player management in your ARC, such as: allowing vehicles and allowing weapons
• Setup player spawning parameters and number of players in your ARC
• Add gameplay overrides that will apply to your ARC, such as controlling the number of jumps allowed and disabling the dash mechanic

• Modify and customize the camera options for your ARC
• Change the name, thumbnail, versioning, tags and description of your ARC
