+To complete your map's export, there are some additional files that are required to make the map work in-game:
 - `MyMapName.txt` contains the description of your map which will be displayed when creating a new save file in the game.
 - `MyMapName.png` contains a screenshot of a prominent part of your map (or any other image) which will be displayed when creating a new save file. The game expects this file to have 4:1 aspect ratio, with the default maps' size being 512x128 pixels.
 - Optionally `MyMapNameSteamThumbnail.png`, which will be used as the preview image displayed in the Steam Workshop if you decide to share your map there. The restrictions for this seem somewhat arbitrary, but it's best to keep the file size under 1 MB and the image size around 256x256 pixels.
 
-Optionally, you can put the three (or four) files into a `zip` archive to share with the community. The archive can then be put into the game's `Custom Maps` folder as-is, and the map will be available to select in-game.

+## Sharing Your Map

+To share your map on [the Steam workshop](https://steamcommunity.com/app/1651490/workshop/), make sure that Steam is open in the background, and that your map's `zip` archive is in the `Custom Maps` folder. Then, go to the rightmost tab in the game's Options menu and select "Share Custom World on Steam Workshop", and then follow the instructions there.

+It's recommended that, in addition to Steam workshop, you also publish your map elsewhere, like on [the itch community](https://itch.io/board/1032686/mods), as not every player has access to Steam workshop.
  
 ## Editing or Updating Your Map
 If you want to update your map, either by adding additional content to it, or by fixing issues that you noticed, like incomplete roads or misplaced decorations, you can simply create a new save file and select your map's export.

 - The proper noun for a person in the game is "a Tiny", with the English plural being "Tinies". This term can be slightly or heavily varied based on the language, as long as it's kept consistent. *For example, German words adapted from English usually don't use `ie` instead of `y` for plural, so the German plural is "Tinys".*
 - To get started translating, simply select the "Review" section in the left sidebar of the project, and then select the language you're working on from the dropdown at the top. All the strings that are either untranslated, or whose English versions have changed, will be listed here. Once you're happy with a string's translation, you can press the green checkmark button to mark it as completed.
-- To test your translation, you can export it and put it into the game. To export it, head to the "Files" section in the left sidebar, and then press the `Localization.json` file's export button, which looks like a little cardboard box. In the menu that comes up, select the language you're working on from the dropdown, and leave everything else the same. Now, you can put the exported file into the `Content/Localization` directory of the game's installation. If it's not part of it already, its name also has to be added to the `LanguageNames.json` file. Starting the game with the `-v` argument will cause it to output some additional information about errors in your localization to the [log file](game_dir.md) as well.

An incomplete translation means that some in-game text will be translated, and it also means that anyone who comes along after you will have less work to do!

 To create a mod, all you have to do is create a repository [from this template](https://github.com/Ellpeck/TinyLifeExampleMod) by pressing the green "Use this template" button. Then, you can open the project contained in it using Visual Studio, Rider or any other kind of C# IDE. The code that is already there contains some examples. Once you're done checking them out, you can just delete them and start fresh.
 
-To run and publish your mods, you can use the included [Cake](https://cakebuild.net/) script, which includes tasks to build, run and publish your mod. To install the required dependencies, you have to run `dotnet tool restore` in the directory that your mod's project file is in. Then, you can run `dotnet cake --target Run` to build your mod, copy it to Tiny Life's mods directory, and run the game, all in one simple command.
