I spend the first couple of weeks of April
setting up the s&box dev site, which lets people upload their games and maps. This is all obviously still a work in progress, there's a lot to think about and part of the reason to invite developers was to force us to think about that early on.
Organisations
We organise assets into organisations. This means that name clashes won't happen. So if you want to play the flatgrass map by facepunch, you can go in the console and do "
map facepunch.flatgrass". If you want to play sandbox by facepunch you can go in the console and do "
gamemode facepunch.sandbox".
In reality you won't need to type these things in the console (because UI exists) but internally this is how it works.
Content
You can add content to your organisation. Right now this means maps and gamemodes, but this should expand to a bunch of things I want to try.
An important thing to note here is that in the system gamemodes and maps are the same thing. The end goal is if you make a map and upload it to this system you'll be able to add achievements and see play stats just like a gamemodes would.
