User Levels
Custom Levels are unofficial levels created by players via the level editor. Players have the ability to like or dislike other players' levels, rate them in difficulty (Auto, Easy, Normal, Hard, Harder, Insane or Demon), or stars (from one to ten, depending on the difficulty of the level), and comment on them. A copying feature is also available which allows players to save a copy of an online level and edit it later in the level editor. This function is often used by players to create a remake of an existing level, more commonly known as a "v2". Additionally, many players make use of the copy function in "creator contests", where the participants must use a segment of a level (previously uploaded by the contest's host) and build the rest of it. Also particularly popular are "collabs", in which a group of players complete different parts of a level. When uploading a level, users have the option to enable the copy function to any player and request a password to be input.
Levels can be found in different ways, for example: users can search for a specific level by its name or ID; they can browse through map packs, or the featured list. They can also access any of a specific creator's uploaded levels by clicking the "info" button on any of the creator's levels and then clicking the "More" button next to their username, or via the "Creators" tab in the leaderboard.
The star ratings of custom levels relate to their difficulty like this.
- 1 star - Auto
- 2 stars - Easy
- 3 stars - Normal
- 4 - 5 stars - Hard
- 6 - 7 stars - Harder
- 8 - 9 stars - Insane
- 10 stars - Demon
Note that prior to Update 2.0, you can vote the number of stars and difficulty separately. Since Update 2.0, you vote only the number of stars, and the corresponding difficulty is selected for each star value as shown above. That is why prior to Update 2.0, a lot of levels that should be rated auto were rated insane but only gave 1 star.
