I created a template, how can I load it?
You can load a template in the same way as a regular save. Through "Load game". Just select your template and then you can either continue editing it or start playing.

There is a world map of earth that is just that, EARTH, it works in 1.2 and 1.3 just requires you to delete factions and save the template if you want a custom faction, i've been using it with radworld for a nuclear fallout sort of game.

Sorry if I'm being stupid, but what's the purpose then of the "Choosing a world template" screen on starting a new game?

You can find the worlds created by the players, then when creating a new game you can select the template.

This feature doesn't seem to be working quite right. I had to manually move the save file from ../config/templates to ../saves

Also, if you create the template before selecting your starting location, and the load game, it seems you'll never be able to settle on this map.

I'm not sure the template function is working correctly. When I press F-11, fill out the name and other fields, and then hit "Create template", it takes me back to the "Choosing World Template" screen with just the default template available. If you press Next from there you just wind up creating a new world.

I've tried this a bunch of times, not seeing a template saved anywhere. You just wind up back at the beginning.

As MagboneD says above, you can find your template file & move it to the save folder, but then it loads the world without your faction or scenario.

I just want to freely edit a world and then be able to generate it anytime with a new game.

In the folder with templates there is also a .def file, copy it to the folder of any mod (or create your own)

Thanks for the quick reply!

I'm not seeing a .def file in the templates folder though (I searched the entire Rimworld directory tree too).

But when I do locate that .def file, I'm unclear what to do with it. What exactly would "copy it to the folder of any mod" do? Again, I'm just hoping to edit/create a world and then re-load it when starting new games.

Sorry if these are basic questions.
