Anatomy of a Stage File
Every field a stage file can hold, what the editor writes into it, and what happens when one is left out.
Stage Modes
The four ways a stage can open — research at a pedestal, an automatic trigger, an external command, or a timed unlock that relocks itself.
Dependencies
Demanding items, levels, kills, stats or other stages before a stage opens, and how AND and OR groups are combined.
Hidden Display
What a player who has not unlocked the stage yet sees in place of the real name, tooltip and lock hint.
Complete Examples
Whole stage files ready to copy, each one naming the folder it belongs in.
