[h2]What's next?[/h2]
Simple maps creator
There way too many options for new players to create anything. Some of them are too complex to understand as there aren't any examples. Beat Aim PhD
shouldn't be required to make a good map.

Creator will have several pages, every page few easy to understand images that can be selected.
3 buttons at the bottom: Back, Skip All, Next.
"?" in top left explaining what settings current page changes.

Later on it could also be use as simpler editor that changes several settings at once.

It took some time but most of Beat Aim online services were finally moved to one place. Many actions are more responsive and developing the game got a lot easier!

• One ranked map rotates every 2 days
  
• Mapper gets "random patron box" that contains gold, epic or legendary patron ticket for a day
