    Hello, this is my first time making a map. I just uploaded it, and hopefully it gets approved by the admins. My question is: how do I update it file-wise? If I edit my mod map, say in the world editor, are those changes then applied to my new map? Should I just use the mapping tool? (Unfortunately, I heard about the mapping tool after I uploaded my map. Would have saved me hours.) Never used the mapping tool and not really sure how it works. Sorry if these are dumb questions; feel free to let me know if they are, and I'll take the post down. Pic for attention

    If this is just a modified version of Utah you'll need to repackage it as an addon to the Utah map instead of a separate map; the repository doesn't allow full reuploads of vanilla maps with only a few things changed to avoid hosting gigabytes of duplicate data.

    Ok thank you for the help. I got it approved; much appreciated. Do you know if the world editor changes are all saved in the levels folder? And what is the process for updating in the future through the repo? thanks
