Tips & Tricks

  • The map does not update automatically. The World Owner or Admin must click the button in the Layout and Location page to generate a new map.
  • If the map icon is disabled - no map has been created yet for the world.
  • If you're hosting a conference or festival, you can temporarily add text assets to your world like "MUSIC AREA" or "BLUE STAGE" over an area of your world. Then create the map (so the directions live in the map) and then delete the text assets in your world.
  • You can create a Landmark Zone and name it in an area of the world so that your guests can easily teleport to specified areas and see who is in those areas. Learn more about Landmark Zones here.
