Overview

The level editor features a large 20,000 x 10,000 "stage" that tin be used, with the outer edge featuring a thick, default-blueish wall. The level editor has a shape limit of 900, and an art limit of 10000 (run across below to find out how much an object takes up in shapes or art, and how to increment the art and shape limits). When entering the level editor, the help box to the right volition bear witness a welcome message. The left side controls what feature is currently being used, but past default, information technology will not be on whatsoever.

A grapheme must always exist present in the stage, and then Wheelchair Guy volition be the default character when entering the level editor. His default starting x-coordinate is 300, and his default starting y-coordinate is five,100. The camera will automatically be at that location upon entering.

The smallest possible shape in the editor is a two x 2 polygon triangle, while the biggest possible shape is a twenty,000 ten 10,000 polygon shape that takes upwardly the unabridged map. The smallest possible shape made by the shape tool is a 5 x 5 circle, and the biggest is a five,000 by 5,000 rectangle.

The level editor dropdown carte du jour appears in the top-left corner of the level editor. It includes these seven options:

• Test Level: This allows one to play their level in its current state as if information technology were a finalized user level, allowing them to check for bugs and make sure the level works as it is supposed to. You tin can also test the level by simply press the "T" key on your keyboard. To end testing, press "T" again.
• Level Options: This will make another carte du jour appear in the center of the screen. This menu only includes  2 options: the level backdrop and the background color. The available backdrops are blank, green hills, and city. Dark-green hills features a background similar to that in Happy Green Hills, whileCity features a groundwork full of buildings, similar to the buildings available every bit special items. The other pick, background color, allows

  

  Previously, if yous were to hover over to the "importable by others" box, this message will show upwardly, but this has since been removed.

  you to modify the background with but color, instead of using not interactive shapes for background. The background color you select will be visible during gameplay, only non while you lot edit.

  

  This happens if you click either the "Load level" or "Delete level" buttons without selecting a level.

• Salve Level: This allows users to upload their levels to

  

  After clicking "Salvage New Level", this toggle will appear.

  the Total Jerkface servers. 1 may choose their level's proper name and add comments to information technology in the save carte. Levels can be made public afterward saving, allowing it to exist played via the "browse user levels" card. Once a level has been made public, it tin no longer be overwritten. Edited public levels tin can only be saved as a new level. Alternatively, levels can exist saved in text form as XML data (check the LevelXML page for more than data about level XML data). Only registered users may save their levels. Yous can save it as a new level, which will come in the load level menu, or overwrite the level, which will save over the old level. If you click on this selection before testing, a message will appear telling yous to test your levels before saving. It is recommended that users should use the XML saving organisation to ensure level data is non lost.
• Load Level: This level brings upward the user's list of saved levels, along with a text box for importing XML information for levels, and a push to delete the selected level. Like saving levels, simply registered users may load levels.
• New Level: This erases the current level completely. The user is warned that this option cannot exist undone.
• Evidence help: This toggles aid boxes which appear by default. Assistance boxes may as well be removed without the show help toggle by click on the "x" on the peak correct corner of the help box.
• Debug Describe: This shows all physics and shapes when testing your level.
• Fullscreen:Make the Level Editor and the rest of the game viewed in fullscreen mode.
• Main Menu: This will bring you to become dorsum to the principal bill of fare. Upon clicking it, information technology says "Are yous sure yous'd like to exit to the main carte du jour? Unsaved piece of work volition be lost FOREVER".

Shapes

Main article: Shapes

The former color selector.

The current color selector.

Shapes are the base object for Happy Wheels. They are used to make art, ground and basically are 90% of the level most of the time. In that location are 3 different shapes: rectangles, circles and triangles.

Shapes tin be fixed in place so that they will never movement or budge, while if set every bit "unfixed" ("stock-still" unchecked) makes them act equally a natural object that falls. Shapes tin can too "sleep", which makes them frozen until they collide with something. The interactive toggle determines whether shapes are physically "there", or simply background objects. Non-interactive shapes cannot exist set to slumber, and they lower the art count rather than the shape count. Non-interactive objects and not-fixed objects can exist grouped.

By holding Ctrl + upward or down pointer central, you can alter the depth of the shape/group, which changes which shape/group can overlap what shape/group. Belongings Ctrl + down will make the object autumn down a layer while Ctrl + upward will move it up a layer. Selecting a shape (or multiple) and pressing C then V clones the shape at the center of the visible screen, if Shift + V is pressed, it will paste the shape on the same coordinates they were copied. Yous tin delete a shape by selecting it and pressing backspace (delete for Macs).

As of version 1.41, individual shapes can be given standoff settings, which decide what type of object can striking each shape:

• ane. Collides with everything.
• 2. Collides with objects, but non characters or character vehicles.
• 3. Collides with aught, usually for joints and groundwork physics.
• 4. Collides with all objects except other collision iv shapes.
• five. Collides just with stock-still shapes.
• 6. Collides only with fixed shapes and other shapes with collision set to this value.
• seven. Collides only with characters.

As of Version 1.61, yous can cut a hole in the center of circles, useful for making wheels on cars or bikes, this, withal, is just a visual effect, so zip tin be placed inside. Jim stated that this was a requirement of the physics engine.

Every bit of Version 1.77, you can now select whatever color in the level editor using the color dropper in the color selector. This replaces the older fashion to take hold of a color from anywhere in the level editor, which was past dragging the circle inside the color spectrum onto somewhere outside the colour selector.

Polygons

Master article: Polygons

Polygons are an alternative to shapes. They are used to create more complex objects also squares, circles and triangles. Polygons have similar properties to shapes (i.e. opaqueness, density and collision), but are all interactive and have a maximum of 10 vertices; these vertices can only be placed clockwise and must connect. In that location is an additional option, whereby one can reverse the polygon they created. The final setting is "reset calibration", which allows the user to return to the original size of the polygon, if they accept altered its size.

Fine art

Principal commodity: Art Tool

Art objects are created in a similar fashion as polygons. Withal, they take a limit of 100 vertices and are always not-interactive. Vertices don't need to be placed clockwise and likewise don't need to connect (which will result in a thin line passing through those vertices). 1 can also edit the vertices, then that they can create curved edges. Bezier handles pop up on either side of the selected vertex, which allow the amount of curvature and length of the curve around that vertex to be altered.

Joints

Main article: Articulation Tool

Joints are used to adhere ane object to another and to add together motors to objects. Motors are almost normally used to create wheels (attaching a circumvolve shape to a base using a motored joint), only many levels have alternating uses for motors, such as doors, swings, and spinning obstacles. To make a simple spinning object, identify an unfixed shape, add a joint to it, and set "enable motor". The v1.79 update adds sliding joints which only slide on a single axis.

Motors spin objects counter-clockwise by default, but placing a "-" in front of the Motor Speed value causes the motor to spin the object clockwise. If a articulation is placed onto an object with no other shape backside it, the object will exist jointed to the background.

Pivot Articulation

The pin joint is the original kind of articulation added in the original release of Happy Wheels. Selecting the "limit rotation" box allows y'all to determine stopping points for your motor. When the motor reaches either of the values in the "Upper angle" and "Lower angle" areas, it volition cease to spin. A stopped motor volition act as a fixed object unless an object of greater force than the current Motor Torque hits it.

A pin joint every bit it will appear in the Level Editor.

After v1.45, the pin joints were redesigned to have pointing arrows, rather than being just a circle. The reason for this is currently unknown, but information technology may be and so people will understand that objects are supposed to rotate counter-clockwise when the motor speed is set to a positive number.

Joint Motor

Motors tin can be practical to joints past checking the "enable motor" box allowing either a rotation or a slide motor depending on what joint you are using.

• Motor Torque is the force used to rotate a joint. Known as "motor force" for the sliding joint, an object of loftier density cannot be rotated when a motor has a low corporeality of torque. The maximum Motor Torque value is 99999.
• Motor Speed determines how fast a motor spins. It does non independently determine the force of a motor, however, so a motor of very high speed can nonetheless be hands stopped by an low-density object if the motor has a low Motor Torque. The maximum Motor Speed is 20.

Sliding Joint

The sliding joint was added in the v1.79 update and allows mechanics similar an elevator to be fabricated much more easily. Checking the "limit range" box allows y'all to determine when the object jointed to the sliding joint will stop moving. An "axis angle" bar on the top allows yous to suit the angle at which the sliding joint slides. But similar the pivot joint, the sliding joint has an "enable motor" box, likewise equally a "collide connected" box, notwithstanding, the maximum motor speed in a sliding joint is fifty, instead of twenty.

An example of an lift with the sliding articulation.

Special Items

Primary Commodity: Special Items

Special items are a variety of detailed items, with many being destroyable, such every bit fruit, electronics, and tables. These items have a high shape count compared to regular shapes. Some accept many toggles, while others are simply placed on the stage.

Text

Main Article: Text

The Text tool allows you to type text or numbers, and identify it in a level. Text is non-interactive.

There are currently 5 font types:

i. Helvetica, regular.

2. Helvetica, bold. This is the default font.

3. Helvetica, a lot more bold.

4. Clarendon, regular.

5. Clarendon, bold.

The size of the text ranges from 10 - 100. Its default size is 15.

The default text box reads "Hither'S SOME TEXT".

Alignment can be changed on the text, with left alignment, center alignment, and right alignment possible.

Text tin be rotated, colored, and transparentized. Information technology tin also be grouped.

You can likewise adhere information technology to a trigger to change the opacity or slide the text.

Trigger Tool

Main commodity Trigger Tool

A trigger.

The trigger tool is used to actuate various objects, such as jets, fans, and even wrecking assurance. Information technology tin besides play sound effects and can besides be used to win the level. If a trigger is used to win a level, you lot do not have to be alive.

Other Features

Flag Indicate

The flag point subsequently pressing 'F' while testing the level.

Pressing "F" while testing a level will play a "ping" sound and create a flag signal in the level editor to see where you were when you pressed it. This is useful for seeing where you country from a high distance. A flag bespeak looks quite similar the sometime pin articulation, except it's larger, is pinkish-scarlet, and has lower opacity. The feature was implemented in the v1.49 update. Testing the level again after placing the flag point volition cause information technology to disappear. Yous are allowed 100 of these in one exam.

Playable Graphic symbol Options

The main character options.

Clicking the character in the level editor will give you multiple options, like changing information technology to ane of the other playable characters, editing coordinates, making the character forced, and hiding the vehicle. Forcing a graphic symbol will result in the publicly saved level only allowing that specific graphic symbol to be played. Hiding the vehicle will remove the character'due south vehicle and so it volition not be used in the level. If yous check it off on a dual character such as Irresponsible Dad, Moped Couple, or Santa Claus, the secondary graphic symbol(s) volition exist gone forth with the vehicle.

Editing the group/vehicle.

Custom Vehicles

On v1.58, a new tool that allows functioning custom vehicles to be made was included.

Edit Groups/Vehicles

You can enter groups/vehicles by double clicking on a grouped object, and editing it instead of breaking the group and editing it. When double clicking to enter a grouping, anything outside of the group volition darken, and anything that is not part of the group can not exist edited until the group is deselected. To exit group editing, double click something that is non function of the group (such as the background).

Pressing "T" while editing a group will result in the red message at the top of the editor to display "exit group before testing level".

Happy Wheels Tutorial for Beginners

Glitches

• As per the v1.51 update, it seems that the level editor may crash for no apparent reason when yous endeavour to test a level. This could happen for a number of reasons: y'all need a new graphics card, update your drivers, etc.
• On Macs and some Windows computers, sometimes levels such every bit 'don't moves' don't work because they were made on a unlike reckoner. For example, a Windows user-created 'don't motility' level won't work on a Mac. This happens due to different computers having different processors, which procedure the game differently. This is also the reason for accurate and inaccurate replays.
• Every bit of v1.75 update, if you use the scroll cycle to zoom in or out, it also moves your browser page upward and down. Jim has stated this volition be fixed but it's a depression priority issue.
• When saving a level and the publish level option comes upwards, hovering your cursor over the green button will display a yellow box explaining what happens when you publish your level. However, if a trigger is direct behind the publish level box and you hover your cursor over information technology and the yellow box overlaps on the trigger in the background, the trigger will turn green and blue.
• If you enter Fullscreen Manner from the Level Editor dropdown (Not from the principal carte or break carte in public levels), the broswer's borderline volition exist visible with the taskbar at the bottom. This is useful if you want to use another program with HW running at the same time without exiting the fullscreen style or pressing ALT+TAB.

The level editor has many glitches and exploits that can create unintentionally foreign effects in playable levels, these include:

• Blackness Hole Glitch. This glitch will teleport the player and everything united nations-fixed to the top left of the screen, it happens when the player hits a shape with incorrect values. To make a Blackness Hole, identify any shape and uncheck 'Fixed' then in 'Density' blazon: "." . and printing enter, it volition change the value to say NaN. Place the shape on the map, and when y'all come in contact with information technology, you volition exist teleported to the top-left of the screen (you volition not exist able to do anything, so restarting is necessary). This glitch tin also piece of work for some special objects, such as: Spikes, Boosts, Fans, Blade weapons, etc. On the 'Rotation' of the object, type: - and press enter so that it turns into NaN. The shape will not be able to rotate any longer and will always remain in the default rotation. When doing this the shape will become 'United nations-interactive' so it can exist seen in-game merely you volition go right through it, and it will have no effect on y'all (note: The black hole glitch only works if your characters heart touches the shape).
• Melt Glitch: This glitch will have the player and un-stock-still objects 'melt', they will go pulled downward until they fall through the bottom of the map. To perform this glitch, identify a Spring Platform onto the map, then place a Blackness Pigsty (explained above) above the Spring Platform, so that, when hitting, it will hitting the Black Hole. This will cause the top Spring Platform piece to disappear (and go to the tiptop left of the screen) and everything else will slowly "melt" downwards. If you lot attempt to do this with a Paddle Platform, instead of the melt glitch, everything will turn into a black pigsty. The Melt Glitch does not work on rails, considering the rail does non accept a toggle for being fixed or un-fixed. Though, buildings tin can't exist toggled as fixed or un-fixed, simply you lot'll melt into them anyway.
• Ultimate Spin: To perform this glitch, place a Pin Joint with a motor torque of 99999 onto any non-fixed object (it can be a shape or a special item), and then set the motor speed to "NaN", which is done by typing "-" into the Motor Speed value and pressing enter. Once this has been washed the object will spin at a ridiculously fast speed and can easily destroy very strong objects. Even 5x5 shapes can be deadly with this glitch applied.
• Art limit message glitch: This glitch occurs when in the level editor, if the shape or art limit is reached and y'all don't delete any shapes, quit out of the level editor and don't relieve, the red text: 'You've reached the fine art limit. Delete some art objects' volition remain however on the screen fifty-fifty when yous're not in the level editor.

  

  A different type of art glitch.

• Shape/Art limit glitch: This glitch makes the shape/fine art limit increase, but the level itself does not alter. Jason says it is a side effect of the v1.56 update. To perform the glitch, relieve the level, and so load the level a couple of times.
• Debug Draw glitch:This glitch occurs when the thespian enables the debug depict selection, leaves the level editor, returns, and tests the level. The "debug depict" feature remains enabled even though information technology automatically disables itself when the player leaves the editor.

Trivia

• In the past (the specific engagement is unknown), when you click on a pink or bluish button, a clicking sound

  

  The current tools bar.

  plays. This has been removed, it is unknown why.
• Jim based the keyboard shortcuts on Adobe Flash shortcuts. Rotating, copying, and pasting are all the same in Adobe Flash.
• The lighting in the Level Editor comes from the right of the stage, as shown from Building 2.
• Collision 5 and half-dozen shapes can't collide with stock-still collision 2 and 4 shapes, even though information technology was stated that they tin can collide with stock-still shapes.
• According to its debug draw characteristic, dynamic objects that completely stop moving for a very pocket-sized flow of time will fall asleep (their collision boxes turn red). However, the main character is kind of the exception; the character's head, torso, and pelvis volition not autumn asleep when they have stopped moving, even if they were ripped apart.
• Jim based the centrality positions of objects in the level editor x (side to side) and y (up and downwards), even though the z-centrality is up and downward, and the y-axis is forward and abroad.
• If a detailed level is displayed in the level editor, information technology volition run slower and then it does when it is published to the level browser.
• When you double click on a grouped object to enter it, and use the color picker in the colour selector on the background or annihilation that is faded out behind the group, it will visually alter to that color even though it's not the background's, shapes', or objects' original color.
• There is an unused toolbar icon in the game files consisting of what possibly looks similar a floppy disk. This may have been the original fashion to save your levels.

  

  The unused icon that resembles a floppy deejay.

Differences in Public and Level Editor Levels

• In the level editor, y'all cannot suspension or charge per unit a level.
• To end a level, you have to press "T" to cease.
• You can't view or save a replay in the editor.
• The "VICTORY" logo doesn't announced in the level editor when you lot win the level.
• The frame rate may run slower than in the publish level depending on how much is in it.

JavaScript Level Editor

For the most function, the editor in the JavaScript version is the same, apart from some subtle differences:

• Unlike in the Wink version where a "silhouette" of a selected object tin can be seen before placing it, in this editor, a transparent version of the selected object shows up. This also eliminates the "negative color" result that resulted from passing the silhouetted grade of the object beyond other items already on the phase.
  • The only tool that follows this is the shape tool. The others sort of maintain the nighttime feature from the previous editor, but are now besides see-through.
• When placing something in the editor, the co-ordinates volition automatically not include decimals. Fifty-fifty when you motion the object around past clicking and dragging, no decimals will show up. You tin can still blazon them in, even so (they might also announced when using the art tool).
• Text from the yellowish infoboxes are formatted slightly differently, using upwardly a scrap more horizontal space than in the Wink version.
• The text tool functions a bit differently; a separate box shows up for typing things in, rather than typing direct into the text box similar in the Flash version.

Trivia

• In the Wink level editor, the accurateness of the position of an object goes up to 1/20th of a pixel. In the JavaScript version, it's i/100th of a pixel.
• When highlighting values that appear on the grey box, such equally length and co-ordinates, the highlight color is blue. This contrasts with the highlight colour of the Flash version which was black.
• Information technology allows the usage of custom text characters, a function that was missing in the Flash version. This allows players to write in multiple fonts, apply characters from dissimilar alphabets, and fifty-fifty insert emojis. This was an unintended characteristic that was preserved.

Glitches

• Rotation values don't loop dorsum to zero. Instead they keep increasing or decreasing in size, depending on which way you lot rotate. Since the value tin can accommodate 5 spaces, you can either accept a maximum value of 99999 or a minimum value of -9999.
  • If you decide to endeavour and go beyond these limits by manually rotating, the value you lot're trying to get past volition only remain stationary, but the detail yous're rotating volition nevertheless rotate. At this point, if you click on something else and click back on the object, the rotation value volition vanish.
• When editing groups, if you decide to exit the group past double-tapping the background with a touchpad, you won't be able to exit the editing mode, fifty-fifty if yous starting time double-clicking with a mouse. What'due south more is that if you try highlighting something (can be an empty spot), the highlight box won't go away, fifty-fifty after you end pressing anything. The only style effectually this problem is by refreshing the folio.
• While editing XML, calculation dots instead of numbers in the value that determines the color of a shape will make the shape turn black when you load the level - However, information technology goes invisible whenever you lot examination it. This is an useful function that prevents you lot from having to constantly change the opacity of a shape to locate information technology while editing.

Mobile Level Editor

A simplified version of the level editor is available in the app, which has a great bargain of similarities to the browser level editor, besides as many differences.

What it looks like when you enter the level editor.

Overview

The space provided in the mobile level editor is 12800 x 6400, which is significantly smaller than the space provided in the browser version. The shape and art limits besides differ from the flash version; in fact, they are the limits that were previously put in the browser level editor, which were 600 and yard, respectively.

Since (like in the browser version) a character must always be nowadays on phase, Segway/Business organisation Guy will be the default graphic symbol when entering the level editor. His ten-coordinate will be 3000, while his y-coordinate will be 2000 by default.

The smallest possible shape is a iii.twenty x 3.20 circumvolve, while the largest shape that can be made is a 3200 ten 3200 square, which occupies a quarter of the length of the level editor stage, as well as half of the elevation.

Controls

Since no keyboard is available to execute controls such as rotation, another way to move objects effectually, equally well as rotate them, has been made exclusively for the Happy Wheels app in order to bypass this problem. When an object/item is selected, two overlapping, transparent circles volition appear over the object. The larger one tin exist used to rotate the object, while the smaller one can be used to move the object around.

In improver to this, 10 buttons are constitute on-screen which can change things to the level, every bit well as things in the level:

This button, which is constitute on the top-left corner of the screen, contains 10 options, in which some change the way something works in the level, while others do something to the level itself:

• Relieve Level - This button saves the level that is currently beingness made. You can so name it and add a description if you want. If yous are editing a level that was already saved and and then you relieve it, you can either save information technology as a new level entirely or relieve the level, but with the changes fabricated.
• New Level - This push button completely removes the level that is on stage, giving y'all all of the space provided in the editor for a new level.
• Load Level - Once pressed, you are directed to a list of all the saved levels, that are categorized into two sections: "Your levels", and "Imported Levels". Here yous can play, edit, delete or share your levels.
• Share Level - This push allows you to share your levels with other people through diverse ways, such as Post.
• Master Card - This button brings you to the main menu of the game. If y'all printing this, you are asked if you would like to "lose changes", to which you can reply "yes" or "no".
• Lock Choice - If you select an item, or a group of items and and so press this push button, you volition not exist able to select them anymore. This can be useful when trying to handle a vast number of shapes or items.
• Unlock All - Any items that accept had their pick locked can be unlocked with this button, making them selectable again.
• Rotate Items Separately - This slider pick allows you lot to rotate two or more than selected items at the aforementioned time, as if y'all were rotating them individually. If this option is turned off, then the selected shapes will rotate as if they were one block.
• Paste In Identify - If this slider selection is activated, every copied item will be pasted in the exact location that the original particular was in.
• Center To Character - Pressing this push button volition make the photographic camera go to the character, so that you can view him. This button is helpful if you are unable to detect the character.
• Close Carte du jour - This push simply closes the editor carte du jour, although y'all can tap outside of the menu to close it.

two. Examination Level

This button, which is found next to the editor menu push button, allows y'all to examination what yous have made.

When testing a level, the intermission button is replaced with a push with an "x" in it; this allows you to stop testing the level and render back to the level editor.

3. Undo
