Blueprint Layers

A blueprint layer defines a map using cells on a grid. You can create a map by manually painting cells or by using generators and algorithms. Here's a simple example that uses two blueprint layers.

You can see that the second layer (Island LVL2) starts by using the LVL1 map as a base with the Add modifier. Then, a Shrink modifier is applied to reduce its size. Finally, a Smooth modifier is used to soften the shape and remove sharp edges.

There are many modifiers available, including some more complex ones. The best way to understand them is to experiment and see how they affect your map.
