Source of the LlamaMod level editor manual. The editor bundles this folder (Help → Manual, F1)
and renders it with its own small converter, so only this Markdown subset is used:
ATX headings (one H1 per file), paragraphs, **bold**, *italic*, `code`, [links](file.md#anchor),
![images](img/x.jpg) on their own line, "* " / "1. " lists (nest by 2 spaces), GFM pipe tables,
"> " block quotes, ``` fenced code, "---" rules. No raw HTML. Anchors are GitHub slugs.
The chapter order and the groups of the contents tree come from the lists below.
Blocks between "generated:NAME" comments are rewritten from the live editor (do not edit them).

# LlamaMod Level Editor Manual
Welcome! This manual explains everything the **LlamaMod level editor** and the **LlamaMod** mod
manager can do – from your first island to texture animations, camera zones and visibility
regions. It is written for players and forum members who want to build their own levels for
*The Emperor's New Groove* (PC, 2000; German: *Ein Königreich für ein Lama*).

[Your first level in 10 minutes](tutorial-first-level.md). Press **F1** anywhere in the editor to
open the chapter about the panel, tool or dialog under the mouse pointer.

## About this manual
The manual is part of the program: **Help → Manual** (**F1**) opens it in its own window with a
contents tree, full-text search and back/forward buttons. **Export** in that window saves it as
HTML pages or as one HTML file with all pictures – handy for posting in a forum or reading on a
phone. The keyboard reference and the mod reference are generated from the program itself, so
they always match your version.
