In this tutorial: https://github.com/kiki-lee/forest_test/blob/master/forest.md
In the forest.md file, how do you find where these file directories are at? I cannot see where they are:
infoUrl: skillmap/educator-info/forest-map-info
bannerUrl: /static/skillmap/forest/forest6.gif
backgroundurl: /static/skillmap/backgrounds/forest-comp.png
im having trouble in my own skillmap getting my images to show.
@Winess those are pointing to images that are stored in the microsoft/pxt-arcade repo. the full paths would be something like pxt-arcade/docs/static/skillmap...
i’m actually not sure what the story is for non first-party skillmaps. have you tried uploading your image somewhere and putting in the full url rather than a relative path?
ok background url works if I do this: backgroundurl: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/sjwines/hourofai/master/assets/NAVSEAMap.png
see my skillmap now: https://arcade.makecode.com/--skillmap#github:sjwines/hourofai/forest.md
still need help with this issue: working on my actual lesson, I want students to have a already-made background and drone sprite. I do not see any tutorials for how to create these and upload them into your github repository. I tried following the forst github repository but I have no idea where their imgs are saved, they are not saved in that reposititory.
You’ll need to make an asset pack for your custom assets.
My instructions for creating them are here (Richard helped with these instructions … a LOT … and provided the video tutorial):
Thank you! This worked for my custom background image for the lesson, but when doing for my drone sprites (I made 5 different custom drones for students to choose from, it does not recognize them.
This is my code: scene.setBackgroundImage(tutorial_asset.ocean_background)
let myDrone = sprites.create(tutorial_asset.player_drone1, SpriteKind.Player)
This might be a caching error for you. This is what I see when I load the first activity in your skillmap:
Is that correct, or am I looking at the wrong activity or step?
what about a Metroidvania skill map or a survival game skill map?
Hmm… How about an infinite runner !
I ended up rebuilding the asset pack in a new microsoft project and it now works!
I’m gonna try to make an RPG skillmap its gonna take a while and I might quit but I am going to make the asset pack at least. Also w tutorial on how to make a tutorial in MakeCode very useful. Once i get back in to Github
also please help
@AlexK where do the tile assets show up in the tilemap gallery I cant seem to find them in any of the folders. I made a asset pack here is the code if you need it
When an asset pack is imported, the assets appear in the gallery.
Scroll further down in the gallery to see your tiles.
I’ve been thinking about this one over the weekend, WoofWoof.
One problem with putting this into a skillmap or tutorial: You can’t activate the debugger within a tutorial.
I do, however, have a set of debugging exercises that I use when I train classroom teachers on MakeCode Arcade. I’ll post those exercises – along with a tutorial on using the built-in debugger – in a separate thread … which I will link here … once I’ve written it. 
Here it is!
