1.0 Some Info
-------------
Hey,nice you decided to make some of your own levels for Dark Woods 2.
Sorry for that the mapmaker wasn't inplanted into the game.I'm quite
lazt,as u can imagine ;)
There is a file called "mymap.dat" That file includes a basic map,with
some instructions beneth the map-screen (15x30).Use that file,make backup
first of course,to generate your own maps.


2.0 Symbols
-----------
Down bellow is a list of all the symbols that can be used when making
a map for Dark Woods 2.

*        ---> Start location for Eduin
T        ---> Tree, unpassable
B        ---> Bush, passable (with sword use)
W        ---> Wall, unpassable    
V        ---> Wall2, unpassable
R        ---> Ruin, unpassable
D        ---> Door,need key to open
Y        ---> Door,need key to open,open it and you win the level
A        ---> Arrows, 3 arrows per A
M        ---> Magic, 2 magic spells per M
K        ---> Key,opens doors
J        ---> Jewel
$        ---> Gold
I        ---> Item,get it and win the level
F        ---> Trap,if Eduin step on trap,he dies
P        ---> Orc,random walking enemy
C        ---> Troll,target walking enemy


3.0 Limitations
---------------
The gamescreen is 30 x 15 squares big. Every line start and end with a '

Max Orcs = 8
Max Trolls = 8
Minimum Orcs/Trolls = 1,you have to use 1 enemy at least.

Don't ever forget to add the start-location-point '*'. Without that,the
game will crash!


4.0 Load
---------------
1.In the Game Menu you choose (L)oad Custom Map (by typing 'L')
2.type the name of file to load (not with the extension,engine add .Dat
so you don't have to do that) and press enter.
3. Enjoy
4.If u change you mind,don't type anything and press Enter.That will
take you back to the Game Menu.
5. Remember to add your maps to the folder containing dwoods2.exe
(otherwise you will not be able to load them).
