A '''map''' is the space available to the player during the game.

Maps are made with the Cobalt [[Map Editor]].

Maps consist of '''[[Layer|layers]]'''. Each layer group has different properties. Some of these properties, like "RGB color" or "Alpha" can be changed, but some, like the kind of physics' properties of a layer group can't. Different groups of layers ~~got~~ different non-editable properties, and the player is free to add layers to any of the groups.

==User maps==

Using the in-game [[Map Editor|map editor]], users can create their own maps and levels, ~~as well as~~ [[Galaxy|galaxies]] by using the [[Galaxy Editor|galaxy editor]]. Galaxies can then be used for a map's sky background.

Using the in-game [[Map Editor|map editor]], users can create their own maps and levels, and formerly, [[Galaxy|galaxies]] by using the [[Galaxy Editor|galaxy editor]] (though users may use the default galaxy). Galaxies can then be used for a map's sky background.

~~User~~ levels installed ~~on your~~ documents\Cobalt\maps folder ~~will then appear~~ inside the "User Maps" menu in the "Play" section of the main menu.

Formerly, user levels installed in the documents\Cobalt\maps folder appeared inside the "User Maps" menu in the "Play" section of the main menu, though now the ''User Maps'' menu is tied to the [https://steamcommunity.com/app/357340/workshop/ Steam Workshop].

Most users ~~rely~~ on the [[http://cobaltvault.no/ Cobalt Vault]] website to upload and share their maps.
