# Map Requirements Panel

The **Map Requirements panel** is your main tool for checking whether your map meets gamemode requirements. It shows you what's needed, what you have, and lets you auto-populate missing actors.

### Opening the Panel

Open it from the Reality Editor toolbar. It also opens automatically if validation fails because of missing spawns.

### What You'll see

The panel shows a list of requirement groups and their individual requirements:

***

Spawns (OR)

```
Spawns (OR)                                    [Satisfy]
  ● Player Starts         12 / >= 10     ✓       [+]
  ○ Team Player Starts     0 / >= 16     —       [+]
    Thresholds: _1 ✓  _2 ✓  _8 ✓  _16 ✗

World (AND)                                    [Satisfy]
  ● NavMesh                 1 / >= 1     ✓       [+]
```

Each row shows:

* **Name** —  which requirement this is 
* **Count** — how many actors you have vs. how many are recommended (e.g., `12 / ≥ 10`)
* **Status —** green check if met, gray if unmet
* **Thresholds** — which player-count tiers your map qualifies for\
  For team spawns, you'll also see a per-team breakdown showing how many spawns each team has.

### Status Colors

| Color | Meaning                                        |
| ----- | ---------------------------------------------- |
| Green | Met                                            |
| Gray  | Not met (warning only - you can still publish) |
| Red   | Hard minimum not met (blocks publishing)       |

### Actions

* **Refresh**\
  Re-scans your map and updates all counts. Use this after you've placed or remove actors.
* **Add (+)**\
  Adds the RGR\_ sublevel for a requirement without placing any actors. Use this if you want to set up the sublevel and place actors manually.
* **Add & Populate**\
  Adds the sublevel and spawns actors to meet the recommended count:\
  -> **Player Spawns** - `RealityPlayerStart` actors in a grid\
  -> **TeamSpawns -** places spawns split evenly between Team 1 and Team 2 \
  **-> NavMesh** - places a large `NavMeshBoundsVolume`
* **Satisfy Group**\
  Runs Add & Populate for every unmet requirement in a group.

### Typical Workflow

#### New Map

1. Open the Map Requirements panel
2. Click **Satisfy** on each group to create sublevels and populate starter actors
3. Move spawn points to good locations in your map
4. Resize the NavMesh volume to cover playable areas
5. Click **Refresh** to verify everything is met
6. Publish - your map is automatically tagged with what it supports!

#### Adding Team Support to an Existing map

1. Open the panel
2. Click **+** next to Team Player Starts
3. Place `RealityPlayerStart` actors and assign them to teams via the `TeamIndex` property
4. Make sure you have at least 2 teams with 6+ spawns each
5. Refresh and publish

#### Increasing Player Count Support

If your map only qualifies for 8-player gamemodes and you want to support 16:

1. Add more spawn points until you have at least 16
2. Refresh the panel - the threshold display will update
3. Re-publish to update your map's tags.
