Introduction

The player path tool is a simple tool to create multiples lines with various points, giving a visual aid for creating levels, helping the visualization of the possible paths that the player can go through the level.

How to use it

To getting started, it's only needed to drag the tool prefab in the wanted scene. The prefab is located in 'Assets/LevelKit/Tools/PlayerPathTool.prefab'.

You can add new points in the path just by clicking on the wanted location in the scene window, but first, a path must be selected (a path can be created in the 'Add new path' button).


To select a point click on the blue button, to select multiple points hold the spacebar and select the wanted points. When a point is selected you can have access in the following functionalities:

  • Change the points position with the position handle
  • Remove the selected point on the red button
  • Add a new point near the selected point on the green button
