Why not hand us a level designer and let us be able to submit map designs in.

Perhaps have a contest awarding energy for approved ideas?

YES

Yes. I would love a dungeon editor, or the ability to design/create one. If it needs some kind of balance then it should cost a certain amount of crowns to "submit", or something like that. And maybe t3 gear at least.

i like the idea of a level

i like the idea of a level design contest, even if it doesnt involve a map editor. maybe just some layout / mechanism ideas to introduce something new, nothing wild though. i know people go totally unrealistic (dont consider the current assets and what it takes to implement these ideas in a game) when they are given that sort of opportunity, so if it happens, they will probably pick something sweet and simple

looking through the source

looking through the source files of the game there are a lot of files labeled Viewer and Editor
so there is definitely a Model viewer and Level editor.

If anything the dev tools would probably be something similar to Valves Source SDK

Let't people design levels

Let't people design levels and give them royalties in crown depending on how many people play it and complete it.

Map loot will be determined by how many people are able to complete the level. So if a small percentage of people can complete it, then loot will be better with the assumption that the level is harder.

This will make level designers try to make a map that is hard enough for people to want to play to get good loot, but not so hard that no one is able to complete it (because the level designer only get crown royalty when people complete the map)
