# Editor Technical Notes
|
|
|
|
This document describes the map editor that exists in the current codebase.
|
|
|
|
## Purpose
|
|
|
|
The editor is a React route used to inspect and adjust the `public/map.json` scene data from inside the La-Fabrik app. It shares the same `MapNode` data format as the game scene and uses React Three Fiber for rendering.
|
|
|
|
## Routing
|
|
|
|
- `/` renders the playable La-Fabrik scene.
|
|
- `/editor` renders the map editor.
|
|
- `src/App.tsx` mounts TanStack Router through `RouterProvider`.
|
|
- `src/router.tsx` defines the `/editor` route and imports `EditorPage` from `src/pages/editor/EditorPage.tsx`.
|
|
|
|

|
## Responsibilities
|
|
|
|
`src/pages/editor/EditorPage.tsx` is the route-level composition component. It owns route-specific state such as selected object, hovered object, transform mode, and player-mode toggle.
|
|
|
|
`src/features/editor/hooks/useEditorSceneData.ts` loads the default map data and handles folder uploads.
|
|
|
|
`src/features/editor/hooks/useEditorHistory.ts` owns editor undo and redo history.
|
|
|
|
`src/features/editor/scene/EditorScene.tsx` composes the editor canvas scene, camera controls, lights, keyboard shortcuts, and `EditorMap`.
|
|
|
|
`src/features/editor/scene/EditorMap.tsx` renders map nodes, fallback cubes, selection highlighting, and transform controls.
|
|
|
|
`src/features/editor/components/EditorControls.tsx` renders the HTML control panel outside the canvas.
|
|
|
|
`src/features/editor/controls/FlyController.tsx` provides editor movement controls for player-style navigation.
|
|
|
|
`src/utils/loadMapSceneData.ts` is shared by the game map and editor. It loads `/map.json` and resolves available `public/models/{name}/model.gltf` files.
|
|
|
|
`src/utils/editor/loadEditorScene.ts` contains editor-only upload handling for user-selected folders.
|
|
|
|
## Data Format
|
|
|
|
The shared editor type lives in `src/types/editor.ts`.
|
|
|
|
```ts
|
|
interface MapNode {
|
|
name: string;
|
|
type: string;
|
|
position: [number, number, number];
|
|
rotation: [number, number, number];
|
|
scale: [number, number, number];
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
`public/map.json` is expected to be a `MapNode[]`.
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
[
|
|
{
|
|
"name": "pylone",
|
|
"type": "Mesh",
|
|
"position": [0, 5, 0],
|
|
"rotation": [0, 1.57, 0],
|
|
"scale": [1, 1, 1]
|
|
}
|
|
]
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Each node `name` maps to a model folder:
|
|
|
|
```txt
|
|
public/
|
|
├── map.json
|
|
└── models/
|
|
└── pylone/
|
|
└── model.gltf
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If a model is missing, the editor renders a fallback cube so the node can still be selected and transformed.
|
|
|
|
## Editor Flow
|
|
|
|
1. `EditorPage` mounts on `/editor`.
|
|
2. `useEditorSceneData` calls `loadMapSceneData()`.
|
|
3. `loadMapSceneData()` loads `/map.json` and available model URLs.
|
|
4. If `/map.json` is missing, the page displays a folder-upload flow.
|
|
5. `EditorScene` renders the grid, lights, camera controls, and map nodes.
|
|
6. `EditorControls` exposes transform mode, history actions, export, save, and selection info.
|
|
|
|
## Controls
|
|
|
|
- Click: select a node.
|
|
- `Esc`: clear selection.
|
|
- `T`: translate mode.
|
|
- `R`: rotate mode.
|
|
- `S`: scale mode.
|
|
- `Ctrl+Z` or `Cmd+Z`: undo.
|
|
- `Ctrl+Y` or `Cmd+Y`: redo.
|
|
- `WASD`, `ZQSD`, or arrow keys: move in player-controller mode.
|
|
- `Space`: move upward in player-controller mode.
|
|
- `Shift`: move downward in player-controller mode.
|
|
|
|
## Saving And Exporting
|
|
|
|
The editor supports two output paths:
|
|
|
|
- Export JSON downloads the current `MapNode[]` as `map.json`.
|
|
- Save to Server posts the current `MapNode[]` to `/api/save-map`.
|
|
|
|
The dev-only `/api/save-map` endpoint is implemented by the Vite plugin in `vite.config.ts`. It writes to `public/map.json` and enforces a maximum payload size.
|
|
|
|
## Styling
|
|
|
|
Editor styles are in `src/index.css` under the `/* Editor page */` section. Classes are prefixed with `editor-` to avoid collisions with the game UI.
|
|
|
|
## Known Limitations
|
|
|
|
- Uploaded model object URLs are not currently revoked after replacement or unmount.
|
|
- Large `map.json` files may need virtualization, culling, or LOD support later.
|
|
- There is no snap-to-grid, duplication, material editing, or object creation workflow yet.
|
|
- Save to Server is a Vite dev-server helper, not a production backend API.
