	Before you can edit maps you have to enter map editing mode. To do this you must [[FAQ#How_do_I_turn_on_debug_mode.3F\|turn on debug mode]], load the map you want to edit, and press Shift-M. You will notice that a lot of text appears in the bottom left of your screen, this provides essential information that you will need to pay attention to later. If there are enemies present on the map, they will stop moving and you will see some green and yellow lines, these tell the artificial intelligence how to patrol around the map. Finally, you will notice that you can fly around by holding down the jump key.		Before you can edit maps you have to enter map editing mode.

	Lugaru is a great game but its map editor is very limited. Its strength (as well as its ~~downfall)~~ is in its simplicity; the map editor environment is no different from the actual game, except that you can modify your surroundings. It is very easy to use, but it is missing many advanced features and some basic ones. For instance, you can not position objects exactly by inputting coordinates. Instead, you can only instantiate objects on top of your character, which is not always an easy feat.		Lugaru is a great game but its map editor is very limited.
