The World Toolkit Window¶

Most of World Toolkit is driven from one window. Open it from Window > World Toolkit > Open, and dock it next to the Inspector so it stays at hand.

Modules¶

The bar at the top of the window switches between modules:

Module	What it's for
Modelling	Create primitives and edit meshes in the Scene view.
Roads	Draw roads and junctions.
Buildings	Generate and edit modular buildings.
Terrain	Shape terrains with stamps.
More	Splines, spawners and other extra tools.

One module at a time

The active module decides what you can click and edit in the Scene view: switching to Roads lets you work on road splines, switching to Terrain lets you work on stamps, and so on. Closing the window turns all module tools off.

The window remembers the last module you used while the editor stays open.

Context tips¶

While a module is active, a small panel in the Scene view shows tips for what you're doing right now: which tool is active, what clicking and dragging will do, and which keys are available. When you're not sure what a click will do, look there first.

You can turn the tips off in the Modelling Settings tab, under Scene View Overlays > Show Context Tips.

Rebuild settings¶

Roads, buildings, terrain stamps, spawners and Boolean Stacks rebuild as you edit them, and splines redraw. Each module's Settings tab has its own Rebuilds section that controls how often that happens while you drag, so a heavy module can wait while a light one updates live:

Rebuild Debounce: While the mouse is held down, waits until you stop moving before rebuilding. Releasing the mouse always applies the pending rebuild.
Mouse Down Idle (s): How long you have to hold still, while dragging, before a rebuild happens. 1.5 seconds by default. Only used with Rebuild Debounce on.
Update Interval (ms): With debounce off, the minimum time between rebuilds (16.6 ms by default, about once per frame). Zero rebuilds on every editor update.

Live feedback or smooth dragging

Turn debounce off for live feedback on small scenes, and keep it on for heavy roads, buildings or large terrains.

Settings¶

Your World Toolkit preferences can be moved between machines or shared with your team. The commands are available in the window tab's menu (the three dots or right-click menu on the window title) under Settings, and in the Settings Files section of the More module's Settings tab:

Command	What it does
Export Settings…	Saves all World Toolkit settings to a `.json` file.
Import Settings…	Loads settings from a `.json` file. Settings this version doesn't know are skipped, and the Console says how many.
Restore Default Settings	After asking for confirmation, replaces all World Toolkit settings with the defaults that ship with World Toolkit.

Note

Import and restore reload the editor scripts, so every module picks up the new settings.

About World Toolkit¶

The About World Toolkit window opens by itself once, the first time the editor loads World Toolkit in a project. Open it again at any time from Window > World Toolkit > About, or from About World Toolkit in the window tab's menu.

It shows the installed version, links to this manual, to @rorugamestudio on X and to the Unity Asset Store, and a set of quick tips. Page through the tips with Previous and Next, by clicking the dots between them, or with Left and Right. Each time the window opens it starts on the next tip.

Show on startup: Opens the window every time the editor starts. Off by default. The choice is saved in the project's UserSettings folder, so it only applies to you.
