World

Worlds are the main feature of World Builder, and are used by players to build games and share ideas. Inside of worlds, players can build, use commands, and interact with other players. Worlds can be turned into an Open Server that can be joined at any time for 150 Robux (Note that this feature is in beta, and can be removed without warning or refund, in the event Open Servers is removed, anyone who owns an Open Server may be compensated with something else in its place.), or Featured by a member of the Staff.

Worlds can have different settings such as their publicity mode, which can be set to Private, which makes the world only accessible to friends of the world owner unless a player enters the world through a warp, Whitelist, which makes the world only accessible to people the world owner manually whitelists, or Public, which lets anybody that isn't banned join. Worlds can be converted over from Blockate by inputting a world token into the text box that says "Optional Blockate Conversion Token", which utilizes Blockate's export to studio feature. Maximum players can also be edited, ranging from 0 to 100. Block count, maximum players and visits are displayed on world cards and world pages. Worlds can have a custom thumbnail using an image ID. Thumbnails have a 7:1 ratio when displayed on the Worlds tab and a 3:1 ratio when viewed on the world page. The image showed to the side of this text is an official thumbnail template made by Grim to assist builders in creating good thumbnails that work well for their worlds.

Free World Slots
In World Builder, you can have up to 50 free world slots to use to create worlds with for free, however, you can increase this amount to 100 if you purchase VIP. After you have reached your maximum amount of free world slots, you will have to pay a fee of 20 world bucks to create a new world. It should be noted that you will NOT be given a refund of world bucks if you purchase VIP and had previously bought new worlds past your limit before having bought it.

Generated Worlds
You may have noticed in the past or recently that there are some worlds whose owner is "[System]", this is not some fancy exploit or bug, it is a feature which allows the developers of world builder or any Event Organizers to create a world that is completely detached from any one single user's account, not wasting their own world slots, for worlds that are intended to be used for Events or some other purpose such as the Tutorial World.

Planned Features
While it is not confirmed when these features may arrive for worlds, we have had confirmation that these features are planned to come to worlds in World Builder in the future:


 * World Templates
 * World Templates will be a feature that allows you to create a world with a pre-made template that is either free (basic, doesn't have any advanced or complex functionality), or paid (has complex or advanced functionality, this could include terrain generation or an RPG starter kit for example).
 * Advanced World Page Customization
 * On a per-world basis, it will be possible to purchase Advanced World Page Customization for that world using world bucks, this customization will allow for the following:
 * Markdown in the description and possibly the title (would be limited to colors and bold/italics/underline/strike-through in the title)
 * Customizing the colour scheme on the page (Might opt for a CSS-inspired method of customizing the world info page instead)
 * Changing the text on the play button
