The Game Directory Structure

by XanthorXIII · in Torque Game Builder · 02/22/2008 (11:21 am) · 4 replies

I am still trying to figure out the game directory structure and where the majority of my changes and addtions will go. I would very much like some help in this regards so I can really start working on my games.
I see two Directorys, Common and Game. I know that possibly my stuff will go into the game directory but what about Common, what in the world is that there for.

It's there for stuff that the engine and tools need. Generally speaking you won't need to modify anything in common. In the "game" directory, you will usually put your script files in either the "behaviors" directory (if they're behaviors) or in the "gameScripts" directory (if they're more traditional script files). Your art assets, etc., will go into the "data" directory.

Would there be a time when I would need to modify anything in Common?

Well that helps me out in at least understanding where I would be working the most.
Thank you.
