Course Editor

Admins build courses directly in the world: up to 36 holes per course, anywhere on the map, from the bundled track kit or from any game prop. Open the editor with F7 or /mgedit. Only admins can open it.

​

The two modes

The panel opens on the course list, with the tabs Courses and Admin. An open course has the tabs General (name, description, start point, blip, publishing), Holes (holes, tee, cup, par, play area, build tools, course check), Props (catalog and placed props) and Settings (rules and money of this course). The top of the panel holds a world toolbar with the camera mode and the most used tools (world mode, kit pieces, quick build, draw path, camera, test the open hole), so most work needs no Tab.

​

Your first course

​

Building faster

​

Quick build (1)

A whole hole in the world, without the panel.

1. A tee ghost follows the pointer. Wheel or ← → turns it, LMB / Enter sets it. This creates a new hole with its tee.
2. The next piece waits on the open lane end. ← → (or the wheel) steps through the pieces, ↑ ↓ picks another open end when there are several. LMB / Enter places the piece, Backspace removes the newest one, B recolours the whole hole.
3. A cup piece finishes the hole: tee and cup are set, and the par and play area are suggested from the lane. 3 tests the hole right away; afterwards the editor comes back in world mode with the same camera.
4. RMB / Esc leaves quick build, Tab opens the panel. Everything placed stays.

A bar at the bottom right shows the piece, the pieces so far, the lane length and the suggested par.

​

Draw path (2)

Click the lane on the ground, and the hole is built from kit pieces.

• LMB adds a point (the first one is the tee), Backspace removes the last one, Enter places the hole. The finished hole shows as ghosts while you draw.
• The lane runs in 45° steps. Straights come from 4, 2 and 1 m pieces, corners from 45° and 90° curves, and a height step of 0.4 m or more between two points becomes ramps when the run is long enough.
• Wheel / ← → turns the tee away from the automatic direction, R goes back to automatic, B picks the colour.
• The bar warns when a corner is too tight or a ramp does not fit, and shows how far the cup is off the last click.

​

Blueprint

A 2D hole builder inside the panel: tab Holes → Blueprint.

• Click a piece in the palette to continue the lane at the open end, or drag it onto the grid; it snaps to the nearest open lane end.
• Drag a piece to move it, drag the background to pan, Wheel zooms, F fits the hole. R turns a piece, Del removes it, Ctrl + Z / Y undo and redo inside the blueprint, Esc closes it.
• Open lane ends show as white arrows; ramps show their rise and every raised piece its height. The side panel has the label, colour theme, par, lane length and the check (one tee, a cup, no open lane end, no overlapping pieces).
• Place in the world turns the blueprint into a new hole that follows the crosshair. Edit in blueprint on an existing hole opens its track pieces, and Apply to hole rebuilds it in place in one undo step.
• Save as own blueprint keeps it on your client (24 slots) next to the prebuilt holes, where you can place, open, rename or delete it.

​

Moving things

​

Mouse cursor and cameras

• Mouse cursor (4): point at props and click instead of aiming the crosshair. On by default and remembered per admin. Hold RMB to look around; a short right click cancels a placement.
• Camera modes (5): orbit circles the selection or the hole (RMB + mouse orbits, Q/E zooms, WASD moves the focus), top-down looks straight down on the whole hole, free is the fly camera.
• Focus (6) flies to the selection and frames it.
• Freecam (F): WASD moves, Q/E down and up, Shift fast, Alt slow. H moves your player to the camera.

​

Gizmo

A selected prop or group shows three arrows (X red, Y green, Z blue) and a yellow ring. Drag an arrow with LMB to slide along it, or the ring to turn it. Shift makes it fine, the grid (V) snaps it. Every drag is one undo step; kit pieces never tilt, and their tees and cups move along.

​

Groups

Ctrl + click (in the world or in the prop list) adds props to a group. The group turns around its centre, lifts, moves (G), duplicates (C) and deletes as one; kit tees and cups take their holes along.

​

Whole holes and courses

• Copy, paste and duplicate holes with all their props, also into other courses.
• Duplicate a course from the course list.
• Move course here moves the whole course so its start point sits where you stand, turned to your facing direction. It can be undone.

​

Testing

Test on a hole (or 3 in the world) plays it right away with the real ball physics:

​

Course check and saving

The course check in the Holes tab lists holes without tee or cup, cups outside the play area, open lane ends of the track kit, a par above the stroke limit and stray props. It is summarised before saving and never blocks a save.

• Undo / redo: Ctrl + Z / Ctrl + Y for every change.
• Drafts: unsaved work survives crashes and restarts. Every working copy keeps its own draft, and only you delete it (Discard).
• Two admins on one course: saving detects when another admin saved the same course in the meantime and asks before overwriting their changes.
• Running rounds are safe: saving never pulls the props from under a running round. Its players keep the layout they are scored on; the new one appears after the round.

​

Publishing

New courses are unpublished (unless Config.Editor.publishNewCourses is on). Players cannot start unpublished courses; admins can still play them solo to test. Publish in the General tab or with the button in the course list.

​

Course settings

Every course can override the server defaults in its Settings tab:

​

Admin console

The Admin tab of the course list:

• Live games and lobbies: end any session; paid entry fees are refunded.
• Leaderboards: remove single entries or reset a course’s board.
• History: restore an older saved version of a course (Config.Editor.historySize, 10 per course). It is saved as a new version.
• Deleted courses: restore a deleted course from the trash (Config.Editor.trashSize, 20).

​

Export and import

/mgcourses lists every course with its ID.

​

All editor controls

The tool keys 1–6 are FiveM key mappings. If another resource uses the same key, rebind them under Settings → Key Bindings → FiveM (“Minigolf editor: …”); the hint bar always shows the bound key. Server defaults: Config.Editor.keys.
