The items in this list range from the largest and most general building blocks down to the smallest ones. However, for the purpose of quickly building a functional level, let’s first focus on the items that are more gameplay-oriented. We can add static geometry such as Landblocks and Buildings later on.

Let’s get started!

Creating a New Level

To create a new level, press the Create a New Level button in the Toolbox. You’ll be prompted with a confirmation window.

Press Create Level.

Choose a name for your level. The file is automatically saved to the correct location, typically the Assets folder of your project.

<aside> 💡

Make sure you save the level inside the folder of your Unity project!

Press Save.

You’ll be greeted with a scene containing the bare essentials of a playable level:

• PlayerVehicle - a spawn point for the player’s vehicle (and its passengers)
• A road to drive on
• Obstacle hotspots
• PlayerVehicleRoute - the editable player navigation route
