When creating your game blocks, it’s normal to make a mistake or simply change your mind. That’s why it’s important to know how to edit any game block.
Login and Choose Game to Edit
When choosing to edit a game block, like your level up block, login to the 7 Gen Blocks Game Builder like you normally would. However, instead of creating a game, select “Edit an Existing Game”. Then choose the game that you want to edit from your list of games.
Choosing Your Block to Edit
Once you have chosen the game, you can then choose which existing block in that game you want to edit. You’ll be shown a list of the blocks in that game. Click on the name of the block that you want to edit. In this case, we’re selecting to edit the level up block. You’ll be asked if you want to edit or delete you level up block. Click on edit.
Level Up Block Editor – Changing Image
After choosing to edit your level up block, you’ll be directed to the Level Up Block Editor. Using the Level Up Block Editor, you can change the image to your level up screen. You can also edit your background image alt text using that text field. Whether it’s editing the text you previously entered or adding text.
To change the background image, click on the current background image to open the asset manager.
Using the asset manager, you can select the image that you want to replace the current background image for your level up screen. Or you can click on the “Upload Asset” button in the asset manager in order to upload a new image. When uploading a new image, click on “Choose File”, select the image you want to upload, and click “Save Images”.
Once you have uploaded your new image or if you are selecting another image already uploaded, make sure to click on the image that you want to select as your new background image. Selecting the image will show you those image’s details, there you can click on the “Select” button to make that image your new background for your level up screen.
Level Up Block Editor – Changing Title Text & Completion Block
In the Level Up Block Editor, use the “Title Text” section to edit the title on your level up screen. If you previously added a title, the text you added will be already in the “Title Text” field. Update the title text to your new title and change the color of the text, if needed.
If you no longer need a title because it’s now on the new background image you updated for your level up screen then make sure to remove the check from the “Use title text” checkbox so that a title is no longer shown over your level up screen image.
If you want to change the next block that your level up screen goes to, use the “Completion Block” text field. What you previously entered as the next block will already be in the completion block text field, so simply delete the name of that block and update it to the desired next block name.
Level Up Block Editor – Save Changes
Once you have finished making the desired changes to you level up screen using the Level Up Block Editor, click on the “Submit” button to save those changes. You’ll then be shown a pop-up message indicating that the changes were saved. That message will also give you the option to continue editing or go back to the main menu. Click on “Continue Editing” to make more changes or click on “Back to Main” to go back to the list of blocks included in your game.
