apworld Specification
Archipelago depends on worlds to provide game-specific details like items, locations and output generation.
Those are located in the worlds/
folder (source) or <insall dir>/lib/worlds/
(when installed).
See [world api.md](world api.md) for details.
apworld provides a way to package and ship a world that is not part of the main distribution by placing a *.apworld
file into the worlds folder.
File Format
apworld files are zip archives with the case-sensitive file ending .apworld
.
The zip has to contain a folder with the same name as the zip, case-sensitive, that contains what would normally be in
the world's folder in worlds/
. I.e. worlds/ror2.apworld
containing ror2/__init__.py
.
