Once the editor is at a stage where it feels completed, it will be included in the main branch of the game, but for now it's useful to be able to do regular updates to the beta branch :)

Here's how you get started with the Level Editor:

How to launch the Level Editor Beta Branch: - Right-click on Tipston Salvage in your Steam Library and click on "Properties..." - In the Properties window, go to Betas - In the top right corner of the Betas window, there's a drop-down that says "None". Change this to "editor_testing" - Launch the game!

Please note that since the level editor is still being worked on, things can and most likely will break. I will do my best to keep old level files compatible with each update of the editor, but I can make mistakes 🙃

If you have any questions or feature requests, the easiest way to get in touch is on the official Discord Server. Posting here on Steam or in the Tipston Salvage Level Builders community works well too!

Let's make some levels!
