This article is for reference purpose
The features described in this article are already implemented in the game. The article should describe how a certain aspect of the game currently works. You may of course edit this article to improve the description of the circumstances. Your opinions or improvement suggestions about the described aspects themself are of course appreciated, too. But please put these on the discussion page of this article to keep facts and fiction separated.
Maps are an important part of The Mana World.
Guidelines
You can build a map for The Mana World using Tiled
- Size: around 200x200 tiles is good in practice, though the theoretical maximum is 2048x2048
- Tile size: 32x32
- Map border: you have to leave a non-walkable but properly designed border around the map of at least 20 tiles (Diagram)
- Walls/players proportions: a normal door for a player is 2 tiles in height
- Indoor/Outdoor proportions: it is not required that inside view of buildings has to fit the size in outside view
- Path reference: please use tmw folder structure to keep references to tilesets working
- Transparent color: tilesets use alpha so no need to set a transparent color
- Layers: each map can have many layers. Two layers are special:
- Fringe: this layer is drawn simultaneously with items and beings, where tiles north of a being are drawn behind the being and tiles south of the being are drawn in front. Hence this layer is suitable for adding static objects to a map like plants or statues which exeed 32px in height. Tiles who belong into fringe are in oversize-tilesets marked with _x2 to _x8.
- Collision: this is a special layer for which you have to use the collision tileset. Use the red collision tile where you want a tile to be unwalkable. Be careful that even if a tile is not reachable, but it's walkable, the server can spawn monsters there, so you won't be able to reach them, or you can cause weird situations. For example fill a wall with collision tiles, not only the borders, or you could have monsters spawning inside the wall.
In a good style of mapping, please always use the lowest layer as possible (this is also in the interests of performance, since it keeps down overdraw).

How to map
When you want to make maps for The Mana World but you don't know how to start, read the Mapping Tutorial.
Map naming
The naming scheme we're using at the moment is described in it's own article here: EAthena Map Names.
On the new server we will be able to have a much more convenient map names. Refer to the Map naming article for details.
