  • <coordinates> is the position of the item in the map <x> <y>.
  • <?pre_argument> define the structure to be created of the item.
  • <post_argument> some of the items or the structures needs custom arguments.

• Rules:

  • Wall: creates a wall of the item
    • coordinates: <x> <y_start> <y_end>
  • Floor: creates a floor of the item
    • coordinates: <x_start> <x_end> <y>
  • Stairs: creates a stairs of the item
