Hello Hedgewars Community,

I am working on to develop custom maps and mods that offer unique gameplay experiences and expand the options available in Hedgewars; I am interested in creating maps with interesting terrain & adding new game mechanics through mods.
I have successfully set up the basic framework for map creation and have experimented with a few simple maps. I want to add more complexity and polish to my creations.

Any tips or best practices for designing maps that offer a good balance of challenge and fun & I’m especially interested in learning about terrain features that can enhance gameplay.

If you have experience with modding Hedgewars. I will appreciate advice on how to implement new game mechanics or features. What tools or resources would you recommend for modding?

Also i have find additional resources; https://www.hedgewars.org/node/2723generative-ai
which is helpful response.

My last question I am facing some issues with map compatibility and mod integration. Any suggestions on common pitfalls to avoid or troubleshooting tips would be very helpful.

Thanks for your help and happy gamingSmile

As per my knowledge this is tips for Custom Maps:

Hedgewars comes with a built-in map editor for designing and testing custom maps.
Save your maps in the data/maps directory. You can also edit the .hwt files to tweak map details.
Check out community-created maps for inspiration and learn from them.

Tips for Mods

Familiarize yourself with Hedgewars' modding framework. The game supports Lua scripting for custom game logic and content.
Explore the sounds, graphics and weapons directories to add new sounds, graphics & weapons.
Regularly test your mods to ensure they work as expected and dont cause conflicts.
