Jump to navigation Jump to search

The Map Editor is a feature in Bloons TD 6 that allows players to create their own maps and share them in the Content Browser. It was introduced in version 39.0.

The Map Editor is unlocked by purchasing it for Monkey Money 6,000 starting at level 50, or by purchasing the Map Editor Unlock from the Shop at any level.

Properties of custom maps

[edit | edit source]
  • All custom maps are treated as Intermediate for the purposes of Hero leveling. That is, Heroes level up 10% faster on Intermediate and custom maps than on Beginner maps.
  • Creators can set the default difficulty, mode, and music of a map when sharing it to the Content Browser. The creator must complete the map on the default difficulty and mode in order to share it.

Paths

[edit | edit source]
Half Cash icon This section is incomplete. You can help out by expanding it.
The editor who added this notice elaborates: Describe the path settings and how nodes work

Paths define both the paths the Bloons move on and the track terrain where track-placeable objects (such as Camo Traps and Road Spikes) can be placed. Maps can have up to 8 separate paths. Paths are limited to a minimum length of 300 units and a maximum length of 20,000 units, and can have up to 50 nodes (counting the two nodes used by the entrance and exit).

Props

[edit | edit source]
Half Cash icon This section is incomplete. You can help out by expanding it.
The editor who added this notice elaborates: describe prop settings, like rotation and size

Props are decorative objects that affect placement. Some props block line of sight and/or act as platforms to see over line-of-sight blockers. Maps can have up to 1,000 props.
