MapInstaller帮助您轻松地将地图分发到社区。按照以下步骤准备发行你的地图：

准备地图​

1. 文件夹结构：
把你的.cok和.cok.cid放到BepInEx\plugins\下的一个文件夹中，并以你的地图名命名该文件夹。例如，BepInEx\plugins\YourMapName\。
您也可以在您的地图文件夹中创建一个Maps子文件夹来放置文件，比如这样：BepInEx\plugins\YourMapName\Maps\。注意，一些应用启动器可能不支持子文件夹。
2. ZIP文件创建：
如果作为ZIP文件上传，则需要包含Maps文件夹。ZIP的结构应该反映BepInEx\plugins目录设置。
3. 测试：
使用MapInstaller测试您的地图，以确认它正确安装和更新。

发布​

MapInstaller​

MapInstaller is a utility mod that simplifies the process of adding and updating custom maps in Cities Skylines 2. It is designed to work seamlessly with manual installations as well as installations done through mod managers like Thunderstore.io app and rModMan.

For End Users​

Installing Maps with Mod Managers​

Using Thunderstore APP or rModMan, installing maps is a breeze:

1. Install MapInstaller:
   • Obtain MapInstaller via your chosen mod manager. A one-time installation is required.
2. Install Maps:
   • Select and install your maps from the mod manager. MapInstaller will automatically install or update the maps when you start the game.

For Map Makers​

MapInstaller helps you distribute your maps to the community with ease. Follow these steps to prepare your map for distribution:

Preparing Your Map​

1. Folder Structure:
   • Store your .cok and .cok.cid map files inside a folder named after your map within BepInEx\plugins, e.g., BepInEx\plugins\YourMapName\.
   • You may also create a Maps subfolder within your map's folder to place the files: BepInEx\plugins\YourMapName\Maps\. Note that some app launchers might not support subfolders.
2. ZIP File Creation:
   • If distributing as a ZIP file, include a Maps folder. The ZIP's structure should reflect the BepInEx\plugins directory setup.
3. Testing:
   • Test your map with MapInstaller to confirm it installs and updates properly.

Distribution​

• Upload your map to mod sharing platforms such as Thunderstore.io or other community hubs.

Manual Installation (Advanced Users)​

For installations without mod managers:

1. Download the Map:
   • Acquire the map files and place them in the BepInEx\plugins directory, adhering to the structure specified by the map maker.
2. Run the Game:
   • Open Cities Skylines 2. MapInstaller will take over from here.

Mod Manager Considerations​

MapInstaller checks both BepInEx\plugins and the mod manager's directory for maps. If you have maps installed through multiple mod managers or different versions, conflicts may occur. To avoid issues:

• Regularly clear out the cache or remove mods from unused mod managers.
• Ensure that maps installed through different mod managers are the same version.

Uninstallation​

MapInstaller does not handle automatic uninstallation. If you remove a map via a mod manager, manually delete the map files from the BepInEx\plugins directory to prevent MapInstaller from loading them.

Support and Feedback​

For support or to share feedback, please open an issue on our GitHub repository or connect on the Cities2Modding discord (find the link on Thunderstore.io under Cities Skylines II).
