Studio FAQ

This is a place where we will collect and answer frequently asked questions.

What should I use to access the files through SFTP?

There is a lot of tools to do that. Use the one you are the most comfortable with.

On Linux, you can for example use the 'Connect to server' function of the Nautilus file management system, or use sshfs.

On Windows, there is for example the WinSCP client.

It's pretty annoying to log in with multiple users to start a game. Is there some easier way?

You can use the 'Express start' function. It will automatically make the specified number of players join the game (using the first of your ten player accounts available) and start the game.

During the game, there is a red arrow on the right of each player name, that you can use to open a tab from this player's perspective.

You can also end the game in two clicks by clicking the 'End game' button then selecting 'Express game stop' in the popup.

What is the working language on BGA studio?

Working language is English.

Variables and functions must be named with English words.

How can I provide translation in my language?

After the game release, the collaborative translation interface can be used to translate into other languages.

I updated the images in the 'img' folder of my game, but they don't show?

Please try emptying your browser cache and reloading the page.

I added some game options / some game statistics, but they don't show?

An extra deployment action from the BGA administrators is needed to activate new game options and statistics. Please contact us.
