Spiral HQ is introducing the Coliseum Crucible!
The Crucible is the home for our engineering gremlins who build and maintain the Clockworks. The Crucible is now seeking new recruits as they create new levels for Lockdown.
- To participate, you need to opt in and agree to the Terms and Conditions. Go into advanced “Game” settings to accept membership.
- From the “System menu” (wrench icon) in the lower left corner of the UI, launch the Crucible Editor
- Create something fun!
- Test your level yourself. To upload/test your level, select “Coliseum” from the activities menu on the right side of your HUD. Now that you’re a member of crucible there should be a 4th tab, in there you can select “my levels” and upload and test your level.
- Ask others to test your level by making it public.
- Submit your level for review. Be aware that once you do this you cannot make changes. Do NOT submit your level for review unless you have thoroughly tested it both in public or private. It should be your final iteration of the level.
- Help others with their levels by testing or helping them use the editor.
The documentation for the editor needs a lot of work and this is a known issue. We're hoping that at the start players can work together to help compile the information in the same way we did for the game when it first launched. We will continue to update this thread to try to give editors a place to start.
Wiki:
- Terms and Conditions are the additional expectations we have for editors. Since this is a sandbox area full of testing, we have a high standard of conduct for those participating. We want to foster an atmosphere where people feel free to ask for help and be creative.
- Coliseum Crucible main article. This is the main article that will eventually link to other help sections. It's been left unprotected so wiki editors can make improvements and create helpful links.
Forums:
- Editor Tool Tips & Tricks forum. Please try to help others and don't be shy to ask for help. The tool is complicated and sometimes difficult to use, but there's a board range of creative things you can do with it.
- Lockdown Level Testing Forum is where you go to ask for testing help or provide feedback to others who are testing levels.
- Editor Feedback and Technical Issues is where you can report issues with the editor or provide feedback. Please be aware that there are issues with the editor and many will not be fixed. Our priority will be issues that cause major issues for players that prevent them from using the editor.
- Wiki Editors is where you can go to ask for help editing the wiki. The players there have a lot of experience with the wiki and can help you tackle wiki formatting.
