76 Also acts as an overlay of the SuperTux game data path:
77 Files placed here, as well as contents of Zip archives in this directory,
78 will override or supplement game data files.
80 To play level /tmp/mylevel.stl in a window of size 800x600, run
81 the program like this:
83 .B supertux2 --window --geometry 800x600 /tmp/mylevel.stl
85 To play a previously recorded demo /tmp/mylevel.demo of level
86 /tmp/mylevel.stl, run SuperTux like this:
88 .B supertux2 --play-demo /tmp/mylevel.demo /tmp/mylevel.stl
91 Custom-made levels can be conveniently stored in the overlay data folder.
94 .B ~/.supertux2/levels/sample_collection/level01.stl
98 (name (_ "Sample Level"))
103 Make sure to also create an "info" file, so the collection will be
104 recognized by SuperTux.
106 .B ~/.supertux2/levels/sample_collection/info
108 ;SuperTux-Level-Subset
109 (supertux-level-subset
110 (title "Sample Collection")
115 For easier distribution, the level collection can be bundled in a Zip
119 .B ~/.supertux2/sample_collection.zip
121 levels/sample_collection/info
122 levels/sample_collection/level01.stl
126 This is a development version, so expect plenty of bugs.
